5.
Looking at the ACSL values, identify which values you want to assign to Memory Gateway A
and which to assign to Memory Gateway B (excluding the smaller configuration devices for
this step).
6.
Issue the “
preparedisk
” command to allocate the ACSL values to Memory Gateway A. For
example:
Where:
-I
is the ACSL, followed by the ACSL value that you chose to allocate
-C
precedes the category, which should be changed to virtual so that it is used as virtual storage
7.
Continue issuing the
preparedisk
command until all ACSL values for Memory Gateway A
are implemented (excluding the configuration devices, which are set up as virtual devices
later).
Make sure to use the correct ACSL value as you progress with allocating the devices.
Note:
Once you have completed allocating the devices on Memory Gateway A, complete the
same process on Memory Gateway B.
8.
Log in to Memory Gateway B:
•
User name:
root
•
Password:
<password>
9.
Repeat steps 3-6 to allocate the devices on Memory Gateway B. Make sure that you use the
available
ACSL values for Memory Gateway B (those not already assigned to Memory
Gateway A and not the two smaller devices that will be used for gateway configuration).
10.
Issue the “
getpdevinfo
” command once again to review the status of the physical devices
you just allocated:
The Category value for each ACSL allocated should now show “Reserved by Virtual Device.”
Creating the Storage Pools
Complete the following step on
both
Memory Gateways to create a storage pool on each gateway.
Memory Gateway A (MG-A) is shown in this example. Assignment will be based on the ACSL
values provided in the storage creation statement.
1.
Log in to Memory Gateway A.
2.
Issue the “
createstoragepool
” command to create a storage pool. Remember to leave
one device for the configuration repository:
[root@
hostname
-MG-A ~]#
isscli preparedisk -I
98:0:0:0,98:0:0:1,98:0:0:2,98:0:1:0,98:0:1:1,98:0:1:2,98:0:2:0,
98:0:2:1,98:0:2:2,98:0:3:0 -C virtual
Command: preparedisk executed successfully.
[root@
hostname
-MG-A ~]#
isscli getpdevinfo -F
