Mapping a volume to HP-UX 11.31 0709 and 0803 hosts

With HP-UX 11.31 0709 and 0803 hosts, a volume with SCSI LUN ID 0 must be defined in each I/O group for the remaining disks to be recognized.

By default, the lowest available SCSI LUN ID is allocated when a volume is mapped to a host; for example, 0 for the first host mapping.

The returned ID is the same for all I/O groups to which the volume is mapped. If an identical SCSI LUN ID is not available in all of the access I/O groups, the command fails. Use the -allowmismatchedscsiids parameter to allow the system to allocate non-identical SCSI LUN IDs in the access I/O groups. The lowest value available in each access I/O group is used. It might not be the same in all access I/O groups. Make sure that the host supports this configuration. This parameter cannot be used with the -scsi parameter.

A volume can also be created manually such as in the following example of defining a volume to host mapping with SCSI LUN ID 0:

mkvdiskhostmap -host host_name|host_id -scsi 0 vdisk_name|vdisk_id
