HSG80 Array Controller V8.7 Command Line Interface Reference Guide
CLI Command Descriptions
Creates a logical unit from a specified container. The controller maps all requests from
the host to the logical-unit number as requests to the container specified in the ADD
UNITS command. Units can be created from all container types:
•
Disk and passthrough devices
•
Stripesets
•
Mirrorsets
•
RAIDsets
•
Partitions
•
Striped mirrorsets
If adding a newly created container to a subsystem, the container must be initialized in
order to be added as a logical unit. If adding a container with previously stored data
that needs to be maintained, do not initialize this container; the container is added as a
logical unit.
CAUTION: Adding a unit immediately makes that unit available to all host connections
unless the DISABLE_ACCESS_PATH switch is specified. See the
ENABLE_ACCESS_PATH/DISABLE_ACCESS_PATH switch description for more
information.
