Greetings to all,

I'm a bit confused by the LUN concept...

I have an MD3200, and I've created a disk pool with 6 virtual disks; they have not yet been mapped to a host. I intend to use these disks as onsite backup locations for nightly backups. This will be just one of several methods we will use for onsite backups.

My question is this: the mapping process gives me the chance to set a LUN number associated with each disk; should I assign a different LUN for each disk, or can I just leave each disk associated with LUN zero?

 

THANKS!
