102 Alphabetical list of commands
map volume
Description
Maps specified volumes using settings that override the volumes’ default mapping.
When a volume is created, if no mapping settings are specified the volume is not mapped;
otherwise, those settings become its default mapping, which specifies the controller host ports and
access level that all connected hosts have to the volume, and the LUN presented to all hosts to
identify the volume. The default mapping’s LUN is known as the volume’s
default LUN
.
The
map volume
command creates mappings with different settings for different hosts. Optionally,
you can specify the LUN, ports, and access level for a mapping. A mapping can make a volume
accessible to hosts, or inaccessible to hosts (known as
masking
). For example, assume a volume’s
default mapping allows read-only access using LUN 5. You can give one host read-write access
using LUN 6, and you can give a second host no access to the volume.
NOTE:
You cannot map a replication set’s secondary volume.
NOTE:
When mapping a volume to a host using the Linux ext3 file system, specify read-write
access; otherwise, the file system will be unable to mount/present/map the volume and will report
an error such as “unknown partition table.”

Parameters
access read-write|rw|read-only|ro|no-access
Optional. The access permission available to attached hosts: read-write (rw), read-only (ro), or
no-access. If the access parameter is specified as read-write or read-only, either the
mapping
parameter or the
lun
parameter must be specified. For an explicit mapping,
no-access
causes the
volume to be masked from specified hosts. If the
access
parameter is omitted, access is set to
read-write
.
mapping
ports.LUN
Deprecated; use the
ports
and
lun
parameters.
lun
LUN
Optional. The LUN to use for the mapping. If a single volume and multiple hosts are specified, the
same LUN is used for each host. If multiple volumes and a single host are specified, the LUN will
increment for the second and subsequent volumes. If multiple volumes and hosts are specified, each
host will have the same LUN for the first volume, the next LUN for the second volume, and so on. The
lun
parameter is ignored if
access
is set to
no-access
. If the
lun
parameter is omitted, the
default LUN is presented. Do not use the
lun
parameter with the
mapping
parameter.
ports
ports
Optional. The ports to use for the mapping; any unspecified ports become unmapped. In a combo
system, select either FC or iSCSI ports, not both. If the
ports
parameter is specified, the
lun
parameter must also be specified. The
ports
parameter is ignored if
access
is set to
no-access
.
If the
ports
parameter is omitted, all ports are mapped. Do not use the
ports
parameter with the
mapping
parameter.
