Creating NVM subsystems

You can create an NVM subsystem on storage systems that support NVM.

1. Browse to the storage system where you want to create an NVM subsystem.
2. Select NVM Subsystems.
3. Click Create NVM Subsystem.
4. Enter the following information, and then click Submit:

   Name

   Enter a name for the NVM subsystem.

   Note: The maximum length is 32 characters.

   Target Ports

   Select a target port from the list.

   Host Mode

   Select a host mode from the list.

   Initiator NQN

   Select an initiator NQN from the list or Enter NQN Manually.

   NQN

   If you select Enter NQN manually, then enter a value for the NQN separated by comma.

   Volumes for Namespaces

   Select one or more volumes from the list.

   Namespace Security

   Select Yes or No from the list.

   • When the namespace security is disabled (you entered No), any host can establish the NVMe connection (connect) to the NVMe subsystem. The host can recognize and access the logical volumes of all namespaces defined on the NVM subsystem.
   • When the namespace security is enabled (you entered Yes), the host can only recognize and access a logical volume of the LU defined in a host group with a WWN set.

   The default is No.
