You must reserve a host group ID to be used by the S-VOL in the resource group in the secondary storage system.
Procedure
Reserve a host group ID (CL1-C-0) in resource group (HAGroup1) by using the raidcom add resource command.
raidcom add resource -resource_name HAGroup1 -port CL1-C-0 -IH1
Check command and output examples
Display information about the host group that is set to port (CL1-C) by using the raidcom get host_grp command. Confirm that the port name, host group ID, and host group name are correct.
raidcom get host_grp -port CL1-C -resource 1 -IH1 PORT GID GROUP_NAME Serial# HMD HMO_BITs CL1-C 0 1C-G00 822222 WIN
The following example shows the result of executing the raidcom get host_grp command.
raidcom get host_grp -port CL1-C -key host_grp -resource 1 -IH1 PORT GID GROUP_NAME Serial# HMD HMO_BITs CL1-C 0 1C-G00 822222 WIN CL1-C 1 HAVol 822222 WIN CL1-C 2 - 822222 - CL1-C 3 - 822222 - CL1-C 4 - 822222 - CL1-C 5 - 822222 -
As shown in this example, the host groups with host group IDs 0 to 5 are reserved in resource group 1. Actual volumes are defined for the host groups with host group IDs 0 and 1. The host groups with host group IDs 2 to 5 are reserved in the resource group, but actual volumes are not defined for them. The host groups with host group IDs 6 to 254 are not displayed, because they are not reserved in resource group 1.
