Configuring the EMC CLARiiON controller with Access Logix installed

The IBM Spectrum Virtualize™ system does not have access to the storage controller logical units (LUs) if Access Logix is installed on the EMC CLARiiON controller. You must use the EMC CLARiiON configuration tools to associate the system and LU.

Before you begin

The following prerequisites must be met before you can configure an EMC CLARiiON controller with Access Logix installed:
  • The EMC CLARiiON controller is not connected to the system
  • You have a RAID controller with LUs, and you have identified the LUs that you want to present to the IBM Spectrum Virtualize system

About this task

You must complete the following tasks to configure an EMC CLARiiON controller with Access Logix installed:
  • Register the IBM Spectrum Virtualize ports with the EMC CLARiiON
  • Configure storage groups

The association between the IBM Spectrum Virtualize system and the LU is formed when you create a storage group that contains both the LU and the system.
