6-44 Sun StorEdge 3000 Family Installation, Operation, and Service Manual • May 2004
Prior to using the LUN Filter feature, identify which array is connected to which
HBA card, and the WWN assigned to each card. This procedure varies according to
the HBA you are using. Refer to the appendix for your host for instructions on
identifying the WWN for your host.
6.2.3.1 Creating Host Filter Entries
Use the “Create Host Filter Entry” command when multiple hosts share the same
loop, can view all the drives, and need to be filtered so that a host sees only the
logical drives that are exclusive to its use.
“Map Host LUN” is used when multiple hosts are not on the same loop. To use this
option, see “Using the Map Host LUN Option” on page 6-37.
Note – You can create a maximum of 128 host filters.
Note – If you plan to create hundreds of host filters, the process is easier if you use
the Sun StorEdge Configuration Service program.
To create host filters, perform the following steps.
1. From the Main Menu, choose “view and edit Host luns.”
A list of available channels and their associated controllers is displayed.
2. Select a channel and host ID and press Return.
