Physical Installation
Hardware install - IBM CE
DS HMC - interna land external (if fitted) Call Home and Remote Support DS Storage Manager - CLI Must use DS CLI package shipped with DS Code DS Storage Manager - GUI http://<ipaddress>:8451/DS8000/Logon Note: DS Stoage Manger on Internal HMC can only provide real-time configuration

User Mangement
Default logon to DS GUI and CLI is admin/admin Password must be changed straight away: chuser -pw passw0rd admin

Activation of License Codes

Required before any logical configuration can be done Obtain machine information: serial number, machine signature Ensure you have the IBM Licensed Function Authorisation Document Go to http://www.ibm.com/storage/dsfa Follow instrcutions and note down license actiation code Apply activation codes to storage image using DS GUI

Create Volume Groups

   

Provides LUN masking feature Volumes can be assigned to one or more volume groups Up to 8320 Volume Groups

Any Host Port (or Host Group) can only access one Volume Group Volume Groups can be accessed by multiple hosts
Providing they use same blocksize and addressing mode Data integrity reposnsibility of the host OS/software

Clustering support
Volumes can be asssigned to multiple Volume Groups Mutliple hosts can be in the same Volume Group

Recommendations
Create one Volume Group per Hoat Group Name Volume Groups with host names (up to 16 chars)

Create Hosts and Host Groups

 

Host attacments assigned as Host Connections

Individual host ports can be grouped into Host Groups

Host Connection created by assigning FC HBA WWN Profiles used to identify host type Recommendations
Group all host connections from a single host into a Host Group
