7.2.2 Remapping the disk to IBM Flex System V7000 Storage Node
Next we proceed to the IBM System Storage DS® Storage Manager, from where we unmap
the disk on the DS4300 and remap it to IBM Flex System V7000 Storage Node.
At this point, we have two options:
򐂰 On the windows server, in the Server Manager Disk Administrator, take the disk offline, so
that the Microsoft Windows 2008 server does not lose connectivity to an online disk.
򐂰 Shut down the Microsoft Windows 2008 server. The server might also need to be rebooted
after installing the SDDDSM drivers which provides Multipathing support for IBM Flex
System V7000 Storage Node.
We chose to shut down the server while remapping the DS4300 LUNs.
Figure 7-2 shows that the DS Storage Manager is currently mapping the disk to the Windows
server.
