Identifying the Server and Operating System to the MSA1000
Because the MSA1000 can operate in a variety of operating system environments,
you must identify your server to the MSA1000. These identification steps include
changing the name of the connection to the server to a meaningful name and
identifying your server’s operating system.
Identify the connection to the server and its operating system using the same
utility you will later use to configure the storage.
For information on identifying your server using the ACU, see the “Selective
Storage Presentation” section in the HP StorageWorks Array Configuration Utility
User Guide. This guide is available on the MSA1000 Support Documentation CD
and the ACU website at
http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/servers/proliant
storage/software-management/acumatrix/index.html
.
For information on identifying your server using the CLI, see the “Managing
Connection Profiles” section of the HP StorageWorks Modular Smart Array 1000
Command Line Interface Reference Guide. This guide is available on the
MSA1000 Support Documentation CD and the MSA1000 website at
http://www.hp.com/go/msa1000
.
Note: The ACU does not allow the connection name and the profile type to be
changed at the same time. These values must be changed separately.
