You must configure the VMware operating system and the guest operating system before you
can use hosts running on a VMware platform with the Lenovo Storage V series system.
Before you configure
the host operating systems, the following
tasks must be completed:
- The Lenovo service representative must install the Lenovo Storage V series system.
- You must install the appropriate host bus adapters.
After the prerequisite tasks are complete, use the following general steps to configure
your host.
- Define the host with the worldwide port name identifiers. You must locate the list of worldwide
port names.
- Define the Fibre Channel port configuration if it was not done
during the installation of the Lenovo Storage V series
system or the Fibre Channel adapters.
- Configure the host for the system by using the instructions in your VMware and guest
operating system publications.
