Add disk from SAN

Hello all,

My Problem: Need to create a backup space on a SAN disk. Therefore i'm trying to reserve disk space on SAN (CX600) can see the LUNZ via ioscan -fnC disk. But the next steps did not work. Can one of you show the steps to take? Thanks for your help.

Regards

After correct presentation of the disk to the system, which is done by world wide name, (fcmsutil /dev/td0 for that)

insf -C

Disk should get an instance number and be ready for the pvcreate command.
