Add the servers that are to be administrated by StorMan using the storcfg host
command, e.g.:
storcfg host -add -name myApplicationHost -ip ip-adr1,ip-adr2,...
-wwpn wwpn1,wwpn2,...
StorMan needs the Host WWPNs to display the LUN masking functions.
WWPNs can be specified in the format
210000C09F9568F8
or
21:00:00:C0:9F:95:68:F8
The new entries can be checked using the storcfg host -show
command.
A server can be removed from the StorMan repository using
storcfg host -rem -name myApplicationHost.
Servers can also be specified just by a WWPN (see section "storcfg host" for details). However, if the hosts have more than one HBA, you are recommended to specify a name and / or IP address for each host to provide a better general overview.
HBA WWPNs can be identified using the software for administering the FC switch or software supplied by the HBA vendor. They also should be printed on the HBA board.
