Set paths (volume paths) between volumes and compute nodes.

The following describes the steps to be performed from the Compute Nodes window or Compute Node detailed information window.

(Bare metal)

For details about the steps to be taken from the Volume window, Volume detailed information window, or Storage Controllers detailed information window, see Allocating volumes to compute nodes (Volume). The Storage Controllers detailed information window is displayed only when the compute port uses iSCSI connection.

(Cloud)

For the steps to be taken from the Volumes window, Volume detailed information window, or Storage Controllers detailed information window, see Allocating volumes to compute nodes (Volume).

  • Required role: Storage or VpsStorage

  1. In the Compute Nodes window or the Compute Node detailed information window, allocate volumes to compute nodes by using one of the following methods:
    • In the Compute Nodes window, select the allocation-target compute nodes (1 to 100 nodes), click the preceding icon shown to the right of Select All, and then, from the menu that appears, select Attach Volumes.

    • Change the view mode of the Compute Nodes window to Inventory view, click the preceding icon shown for each allocation-target compute node, and then, from the menu that appears, select Attach Volumes.

    • In the Compute Node detailed information window for each allocation-target node, click the preceding icon, and then, from the menu that appears, select Attach Volumes.

    The following dialog appears.

  2. Select one or more compute nodes (1,000 nodes at maximum) to be allocated, enter the following as required, and then click Submit.
    • START LUN: LUN start number

      You can specify this parameter in the case of iSCSI connection or FC connection.

      If you specify the LUN start number, unused LUN numbers are allocated in ascending order from the specified start number. If omitted, unused LUNs are allocated automatically in ascending order.

      Do not enter anything in the case of NVMe/TCP connection.

  3. When the following "Completed" message is displayed, processing is completed.
    • Successfully attached volumes to compute nodes.
