Basic configuration of IBM storwize V5000 Storage

Basic status of devices and systems
First, add the configuration host. The premise is that the fiber optic cable has been connected and the fiber optic switch has been configured.
Here we use fiber channel
The system should be able to automatically identify the port. The host name can be set to the host model or Host application name.
Two ports complete
Configure internal memory
Here, you can manually customize hot spare parts, that is, hot spare parts. The advantage of this configuration is that you can select the slot of the hot spare parts.
Configure the RAID array for internal storage. You can use the system to recommend automatic configuration or manual configuration as needed.
We can see that in order to achieve a better character, RAID 5 allows a maximum of 8 disks in A group. If you set 9 disks, it will be split into two RAID 5 groups.
Here we use a group of 5 + + 1 and a hot spare part. It is also the recommended configuration of the system.
Directly group two groups into one pool.
In this actual production configuration, we need to create two RAID groups and allocate them to two pools respectively.
Therefore, we cannot automatically complete two RAID groups at a time. We need to configure them one by one.
Create a 5 + 1 RAID group first
Randomly assigned 6 Disks
Create another 4 + 1 RAID group
Two pools have been created
Create a volume on the pool. Currently, you only need to create two volumes, 300 GB + 1500 GB.
Map volumes to hosts
Created successfully. At this time, you should be able to identify the storage disk on the host.
