DMX 3 Disk Allocation

[Sajeev2007]

All,

I have worked on EVA and XP arrays. We recently installed a couple fo DMX3. I have the ECC admin guide.

I need help with disk allocation. Do you have any documentation that describes the entire process using ECC ?

Any and all help is greatly appriciated.

thanks much !

Hi Sajeev,

Probably not the best place for your question, as this forum is really for HP Storage products.

You probably want to start over at http://powerlink.emc.com

However when I had the misfortune to have to work on a DMX-800 a few years back, it was a painful experience. Hopefully things have improved, but having to specify LUN sizes in terms of number of cylinders, wasn't a nice place to be...

Cheers,

Rob

Yea. I am in the same situation.

But isnt it similar to the HDS and XP lun allocation?


I have a powerlink account but its not much help as these forums. Three cheers to HP !!!


No idea how to carve LUNS on the DMX-3. thats why i asked the question :)

Hi,

I've never used an XP or HDS box, so couldn't say.

Finding documentation for the DMX-800 though, was like looking for a needle in a haystack...

Cheers,
