VMAX3: consolidate different MV in only one

Mario_kart,

Here is a link to Unisphere for VMAX Online Help & if you look on page 398 it explains about changing masking views.

Please let us know if you have any other questions.

Could you be more specific. 

Let's say i have an ESX with 20 clusters, i can make one MV for complete ESX.

1 MV= 1 PIG(20 CIG) + 1 PG(with all ports) + 1 SG

but this setup will have its own limitation if you want to share something out of this box, it will be again a tough task for you.

Literature can be found in admin guide. 

Hi

I have an ESX with 4 clusters with different MVs but SAME SG, I want consolidate all in one MV.

1 MV= 1 PIG(4 CIG) + 1 PG(with all ports) + 1 SG

There will be any impact on host side? Any detached DS events? In short: moving the config on storage side will deconnect anything on host?

In Admin Guide I was not able to find this info.

Regards,

Mario

Hi Moderator,

thanks for your support. Indeed what I need is only the literature referement to this (if existing) feature.

I think to have read some about years ago there is a chance to move initiator from 1 masking to another with the same SG visibility, without impact, but I cannot find it anymore.

Thanks in advance,

Mario
