Description

Virtual Management Settings

Select one from the following options.

  • Enable: Virtualization management can be used. You can set a initial virtual LDEV ID or the virtual configuration, or the both.
  • Enable (Not Set): Virtualization management can be used. However, you cannot set the initial virtual LDEV ID and the virtual configuration.
  • Disable: Virtual management cannot be used.

Initial Virtual LDEV ID

Specify the virtual LDEV identifier of the volume.

  • LDKC: LDKC number is displayed.
  • CU: Select the CU number between 00 and FE.
  • DEV: Select the device number between 00 and FF.
  • Interval: Specify the interval between 0 and 255.

    If the virtual storage machine is the same as the storage system, assign the virtual LDEV ID which is different from the LDEV ID of the selected LDEV. If the virtual storage machine is the same as the storage system, and if the virtual LDEV ID which is the same as LDEV ID of the selected LDEV must be assigned, select Disable in Virtualization Management Settings.

    Caution: To specify multiple virtual LDEV IDs, specify the interval for setting virtual LDEV IDs in Interval. If virtual storage machines that span multiple storage systems are configured, do not allocate any virtual LDEV ID that is already used in other storage system.

This item is selectable only when the Enable is selected in the Virtual Management.

Virtual Configuration

Select either one from the following alternatives.

  • Specify: Virtual configuration can be specified and set.

Specify the hexadecimal SSID between 0004 and FFFE. Specify a virtual SSID for each virtual LDEV address (64, 128, 256) in the virtual storage machine.

This item is selectable only when the Specify is selected in the Virtual Configuration.
