Configuration settings for Xiotech ISE systems

The Xiotech ISE Storage Management GUI provides configuration settings and options that can be used with the system.

The only specific setting is the host operating system type: Windows or Linux. This setting is irrelevant as it is not currently used by the system.

LU options and settings

Logical unit (LU) settings for the Xiotech ISE system are configurable at the LU level.

Table 1 lists the options that must be set for each LU that is accessed by other hosts. LUs that are accessed by hosts can be configured differently. You can use the Xiotech ISE Storage Management GUI or CLI to change these settings.

Host options and settings for Xiotech ISE

You must use specific settings to identify the the systems as hosts to the Xiotech ISE storage system.

A Xiotech ISE host is a single WWPN; however, multiple WWPNs can be included in a single host definition on the Xiotech ISE system.

A Xiotech ISE host also can consist of more than one WWPN. The recommended method is to make each node a Xiotech ISE host and to make a Xiotech ISE cluster that corresponds to all the nodes in the system. To complete this procedure, include all of the WWPNs for the system under the same Xiotech ISE host name.
