SAN with Dell PE 2950

Check the host connectivity guide from the Powerlink site for information on how to set up a host and configure Navisphere to allow the server to see storage.

Basic steps:
- install the correct HBA driver (most likely need to use the kernel native driver, but without exact info about which HBA you have this is impossible to say for sure)
- zone the server to see the storage (assuming you're using fibre channel switches)
- register the server with the array (in Navisphere)
- create a new storage group (in Navisphere)
- put the server in the new storage group (in Navisphere)
- create one or more luns (if you don't already have these made)
- add the lun(s) to the storage group
- reboot server

From Powerlink under the documentation there's also the guide for how to set up DM-MPIO for RHEL/SLES as Powerpath isn't supported (at this time) for RHEL5.

Can u please send me that link frm where i can get info abt accessing storage partition in RHEL-5

and one more thing, we have already defined storage group and LUNs in EMC CX300.Do we have to create the same in linux navisphere.
