DMX n HPUX.

txt
1. No reconfig needed usually

2. Find Your fc adapters:

ioscan -fnkCfc
(the 'k' being optional for kernel search without rescan of hardware paths)

3. Check for fabric login / link speed

/opt/fcms/bin/tdutil /dev/tdN (number)
4. Check if You see the DMX, compare the HostAdapter port WWNs (this of course
needs correct zoning,
otherwise You will see a 'ct_query failed' message in dmesg, not syslog)
/opt/fcms/bin/tdutil /dev/tdN get remote all

5. Finally, scan for disks

(if they don't show up, there may be a problem)
ioscan -fnCdisk | more
5. Create device files
(no, we don't have a devfs)
insf -e
6. check the lun size
diskinfo /dev/rdsk/cXtYdZ
7. initialize the LUN with a VG header (I guess You want that)
pvcreate /dev/rdsk/cXtYdZ
8. when creating logical volumes, take care to use the option '-r N' to the
lvcreate command, or if
You want to use SAM then apply lvchange -r N /dev/vgNN/lvolNN afterwards. This
disables bad block relocation
and recording, which is healthy for avoiding strange incosistencies (I spelled
that wrong, huh?)
Notes:
/usr/local/bin/inq is the sym query
symmetrix discover is something I don't think You have to do, if I'm wrong, seek
documetation for 'symdisc'
cXtYd0 is reserved for timefinder control devices, You can check this by the LUN
size presented (7MB on
Symmetrix or 40somethingMB on DMX)
HP-UX usually won't access scsi IDs higher than 7, this is better to be tested
out and never forgotten otherwards.
