DS8000企业级存储系统配置手册

一些概念性的东西:

DS8100

The DS8100 (Models 921 and 931) features a dual two-way processor complex and support for one expansion model.

DS8300

The DS8300 (Models 922, 932, 9A2, and 9B2) features a dual four-way processor complex and support for up to four expansion models. Models 9A2 and 9B2 support two IBM System Storage System logical partitions (LPARs) in one storage unit.

 

Completing DS CLI postinstallation

1. Initiate the DS CLI to begin using it in either single-shot, script, or interactive command mode.

2. Set up your required user accounts and passwords.

3. Set your DS CLI default configuration settings.

4. Activate your licensed functions. This includes obtaining your feature activation codes and applying the feature activation codes to your storage unit.

5. Enable the remote support and call home functions for your DS6000 model. You must provide customer contact and network information to enable these functions.

6. Register for the My Support service for your DS6000 model.

7. Configure new fixed block storage. Use the DS CLI to create and modify fixed block extent pools, arrays, ranks, volumes, and volume groups. You can also configure host ports and connections.

 

 

You must log into DS CLI to use the command modes. There are three command modes for the DS CLI:

Single-shot

Interactive

Script

 

Obtaining the serial (storage image ID) number using the DS CLI

dscli> lssi

Date/Time: September 15, 2006 10:39:32 AM MST DS CLI Version: 5.2.200.404

IBM.2107-1301371

 

To obtain a list of the storage image ID numbers, perform the following steps. The storage image ID consists of the manufacture name (IBM), the machine type (2107 or 1750), and the serial number.

1. Log into the DS CLI application in interactive command mode (if you are not already logged in).

2. Enter the following command format at the dscli command prompt to obtain the storage image IDs. dscli>lssi -s -hdr off

3. Wait for the command to process. The following type of report is generated, which lists the storage image IDs that are associated with the storage complex.

dscli>lssi -s -hdr off

IBM.2107-75FA111

IBM.2107-75FA112

IBM.2107-75FA120

 

Setting up user accounts

The admin account is set up automatically at the time of installation. It is accessed using the user name admin and the default password admin. This password is temporary and expires after its initial use. You must change the password before you can use any of the other functions. There are 7 groups the administrator can assign to a user. A user can be assigned to more than one user group. The groups and the associated functions allowed by the assignment are as follows:

Admin

op_volume

op_storage

op_copy_services

service

monitor

no_access

 

1.Log into the DS CLI application in interactive command mode.

2.Issue the following command from the dscli command prompt to assign a user to an account with a default password: dscli>mkuser -pw AB9cdefg -group service,op_copy_services testuser

3.Press Enter and observe the processing result. A successful process returns the following display: Sun Aug 11 02:23:49 PST 2004 IBM DS CLI

Version 5.0.0.0 DS: IBM.2107-75FA120

User Name testuser successfully created.

 

 

 

Follow the configuration steps to create at least one LSS or one LCU.

a. Create extent pools

b. Create arrays

c. Create a rank

d. Create a logical control unit (CKD only)

e. Create volumes

f. Create volume groups (Open systems only)

g. Configure your fibre-channel I/O ports

h. Create the SCSI host port connections (Open systems only)

 

 

Configuring new fixed block storage

 

Configuring new fixed block storage involves the following processes:

1 Creating fixed block extent pools

2 Creating arrays

3 Creating and associating ranks with extent pools

4 Creating fixed block volumes

5 Creating fixed block volume groups

6 Configuring fibre-channel I/O ports

7 Creating SCSI host port connections
