Assign LUN from VMAX to new host

Assign LUN from VMAX to new host
  1. 1.       First check the wwpn login status after do the zoning.

symaccess -sid 123 list logins -wwn 0000000000000000
  1. 2.       Create IG group

symaccess -sid 123 create -name IG_ESX140 -type init -wwn 000000000000000 -consistent_lun
  1. 3.       Add another wwpn to the same IG group

symaccess -sid 123 add -name IG_ESX140 -type init -wwn 00000000000001
  1. 4.       Created SG group and mapped luns to it

symaccess -sid 123 create -name SG_ESX140 -type storage devs 0472,0482
  1. 5.       Check the port group name to create MV Group

symaccess -sid 123 list -type port
  1. 6.       Create MV Group

symaccess -sid 123 create view -name MV_ESX140 -ig IG_ESX140 -sg SG_ESX140 -pg PG_1F0_2F0_3F0_4F0


Now existing LUNs has been mapped to new zoned server

Brocade LSAN Zoning

Brocade LSAN Zoning :

First do Nodefind wwpn

We need to do zoning at 4 switch in LSAN case, 2 switch which are at local site and 2 switch which are on another Fabric.
  1. 1.       First create alias name

alicreate  “alias_name_host”, “wwpn_number_host”

alicreate  “alias_name_storage”, “wwpn_number_storage”
  1. 2.       Create the zone

zonecreate “LSAN_zone_name_host_aliasname_storage_aliasname”, “alias_name_host; alias_name_storage”
  1. 3.       Add the zone name in active config

First check the active config name

actvcfgshow |grep cfg

cfgname will come

cfgadd “cfgname”, “LSAN_zone_name_host_aliasname_storage_aliasname”
  1. 4.       Enable the config

cfgenable cfgname

Now zoning done on one brocade switch, perform the same on secondary and another fabric  switches.



Brocade Zoning

Brocade Zoning :

Check first Nodefind wwpn
  1. 1.       First create alias name

alicreate  “alias_name_host”, “wwpn_number_host”

alicreate  “alias_name_storage”, “wwpn_number_storage”
  1. 2.       Create the zone

zonecreate “zone_name_host_aliasname_storage_aliasname”, “alias_name_host; alias_name_storage”
  1. 3.       Add the zone name in active config

First check the active config name

actvcfgshow |grep cfg

cfgname will come

cfgadd “cfgname”, “zone_name_host_aliasname_storage_aliasname”
  1. 4.       Enable the config

cfgenable cfgname


Now zoning done on one brocade switch, perform the same on secondary switch for redundancy

How to add new vif to vfiler NetApp

How to add new vif to vfiler NetApp


1. First add the vlan id to existing vlan
    vlan add vlanname id
    example : vlan add ifgrps 13
2. assign vif to ipspace 
    ipspace assign ip_spacename ifgrps-13

3. add ip addredd on vif
    ifconfig ifgrps-13 10.1.1.10 netmask 255.255.252.0 partner ifgrps-13

4. add ip address to vfiler 
    vfiler add vfilername -i 10.238.52.143 


if not able to ping host from vfiler, ask network Team to check the vlan access at switch level
