To define a path to a disk, first complete the following fields and then click Finish, or click Cancel to end this task.
When you define a path, you make the destination (a disk) accessible to the source (a data mover such as, a NAS file server or a SCSI data mover).
Enter the name of the data mover or server that will be the source for this path. The source must already be defined to the server.
Select the name of the disk that will be the destination for this path.
Select the name of the node that owns the destination disk. The library must contain the drive that is the destination.
Select the logical unit name through which the data mover or disk can be accessed by the source.
Select the SCSI initiator ID for the data mover logical unit name through which the data mover or disk can be accessed by the source.
Select whether the path is available for use. The default is Yes.
Yes | The path is online and available for use. However, if either the source or the destination is not available, the path is not available. |
No | The path is not available for use. |
