Hello, I have tried to get Smart SAN working, but somehow it doens't work.
I have the following:
HPE 3PAR 8200 (latest firmware, latest ssmc, accordingly to SPOCK)
HPE SN3000B (8.10b) planning to upgrade to v8.0.2c
I have the Smart SAN licensed on my 3PAR, I also executed the command to enable Smart SAN on my HPE SN3000B Switches. I have certified Qlogic 16GB HBA's on my Windows 2016 NANO servers.
When I check my FC Switches, it says that it has Smart SAN 1.0 enabled (how can I upgrade it to Smart SAN 2.0?)
I try to make TDPZ Zones in SSMC, but no zones are created. I can create a host and choose FC. Then I can select the WWN numbers from the specific host.
Do I need to use CLI commands for our FC switches to create the zones? What am I doing wrong? We are runnig Windows 2016 NANO server. When I check my 3PAR ssmc, I can choose "Windows Server 2016" so it is supported, right?
Solved! Go to Solution.

What exact version? showversion -b
> Do I need to use CLI commands for our FC switches to create the zones?
I would recommend doing that.
What ports are connected to your fabric?
showport
What switches are connected?
showportdev fcswitch <N:S:P> # a port connected to the fabric.
showportdev fcfabric <N:S:P> # list of WWNs connected.
There are other showportdev subcommands for Smart San zoning.

Re: 3PAR Smart SAN (can't get it to work)
Ok, you have two switches: FC-SWITCH1 & FC-SWITCH2
Which ports on the two switches are connected to your hosts? I see 7 ports in use on both.
Or course some of those ports are connecting to the array.

Re: 3PAR Smart SAN (can't get it to work)
Hi,
Port 0 & 1 are the 3par array.
Ports 2 till 6 are all Hosts (nano servers)
The hosts (Windows NANO serveras) all begin with 5001... as WWN numbers.

Re: 3PAR Smart SAN (can't get it to work)
> Ports 2 till 6 are all Hosts (nano servers)
So this shows all of the possible connections and you now need to zone them?

Re: 3PAR Smart SAN (can't get it to work)
Ok, so this is what I did:
I executed the following command on the 3PAR CLI:
createhost -port 0:0:1,0:0:2,1:0:1,1:0:2 SERVERNAME 5001***************** 5001******************
I see now that a new Host is been created on the SSMC, I also see that new Zones are auto created on the switches!
In SSMC under Hosts I opened the Map and see a diagram where there are 4 connections to the new created host.
Is this how Smart San works?
