- Host terminology
Learn how the host terms apply to your storage array. - Workflow for host creation and volume assignment
The following figure illustrates how to configure host access. - Automatic versus manual host creation
Creating a host is one of the steps required to let the storage array know which hosts are attached to it and to allow I/O access to the volumes. You can create a host automatically or manually. - How volumes are assigned to hosts and host clusters
For a host or host cluster to send I/O to a volume, you must assign the volume to the host or host cluster. - Access volumes
An access volume is a factory-configured volume on the storage array that is used for communication with the storage array and the host through the host I/O connection. The access volume requires a Logical Unit Number (LUN). - Maximum number of LUNs
The storage array has a maximum number of logical unit numbers (LUNs) that can be used for each host.
