Configuring Storage
Follow these steps to configure the storage on the 7000 Series Flash Storage Platform.
Note:
Before you set up or allocate space for a storage pool, it is recommended that you consider
a strategy for planning the most efficient use of your storage pools. For details and best practices,
see the latest version
Violin 7700 Flash Storage Platform Best Practices Guide
.
1.
Start a terminal session (using PuTTY or a similar SSH program) to connect to Memory
Gateway A using its hostname or IP address.
2.
Log in to Memory Gateway A:
•
User name:
root
•
Password:
<password>
Note:
Another option is to connect directly to the Memory Gateway using its IP address rather
than connecting from the ACM.
3.
Issue the following command to show the current total allocated and total available space on
the 7000 Series FSP. The total space shown will be different after creating the storage pools
(done later in this process).
4.
Issue the “
media_init.sh
” command to begin initialization and to set up the partitions on
the 7000 Series FSP:
5.
Before initializing the partitions, you are prompted to respond with “y” (yes) to continue, which
will shut down (stop) the Concerto modules. Enter “
y
” to continue.
Note:
You only need to run the “
media_init
” command from one of the Memory Gateways.
[root@
hostname
-MG-A ~]#
isscli getpdevinfo
IPStor Server:
hostname
-MG-A
Total Allocated Space: 0MB
Total Available Space: 0MB
Command: getpdevinfo executed successfully.
[root@
hostname
-MG-A ~]#
media_init.sh -f
Stopping Concerto services to initiate partitioning ....
.
.
.
All virtual devices are going to be detached.
We recommend stopping all Concerto client services prior to shutdown.
Otherwise, data loss may occur.
Are you sure you want to continue? (y/n) [n]:
