Viewing a Fibre Channel Device

Use this procedure to add a fibre channel (FC) device. Before adding a FC device, first configure the Host Bus Adapter (HBA) card so you can view the device. Use the fs_scsi -p command to make sure you can view your devices over FC. FC devices include tape libraries, individual drives, or RAID disk.

Type the /usr/cvfs/bin/fs_scsi -p command to make sure that the necessary devices can be viewed over FC.

To view tape libraries, access the StorNext GUI to view your tape libraries.

To view individual drives or RAID LUNs, access either the StorNext or SNFS GUI.

To add a disk, see File System Tasks. To add a tape drive to a configured library, see Setting Up Libraries.
