Register servers in VSP One Block Administrator so that you can assign storage resources to them. For cluster configurations, you must register all of the servers (nodes) that make up the cluster as one server. In this case, when specifying the WWNs or iSCSI initiator names to use for connecting to storage system ports, add all of the WWNs or iSCSI initiator names of each server.

  • The server must be connected to the storage system by using a Fibre Channel (FC) connection or an iSCSI connection.
  • If you are using an FC connection, obtain the following:
    • Server name
    • OS type
    • WWN

      The total number of WWNs that can be added to a server is 32.

  • If you are using an iSCSI connection, obtain the following:
    • Server name

      The server name must not include any commas (,), slashes (/), or backslashes (\).

    • OS type
    • iSCSI initiator name

      The total number of iSCSI initiator names that can be added to a server is 32.

  • Make sure that the user performing the procedure has been assigned the Storage Administrator (Provisioning) role.
