2. The first window of the wizard is an introduction (Figure 4-69). You are asked to assign a
name to the host being defined, and whether you plan to use storage partitioning.

3. If you only plan to attach a single host server, then you do not need storage partitioning.
But if you plan group different host environments together, or if clusters sharing logical
drives is recommended, click Yes to create different hosts groups at a later time.
4. In the next window, you need the attachment protocol to specify the host interface type, FC
or iSCSI, and the HBA host port information (host port identifier and alias). Remember
that the HBA host port identifier is the world-wide port name of the particular HBA. To
make sure that you know what your server’s HBA WWPN is, use the SANsurfer
management tool (which is discussed in 7.11.3, “Qlogic HBAs and SANsurfer
(Windows/Linux)” on page 443), as shown in Figure 4-70.
