Viewing mappings

The Mapping topic shows a tabular view of information about mappings that are defined in the system. By default, the table shows 20 entries at a time and is sorted first by host and second by volume.

The mapping table shows the following information:
  • Group.Host.Nickname. Identifies the initiators to which the mapping applies:
    • All Other Initiators. The mapping applies to all initiators that are not explicitly mapped with different settings.
    • initiator-name—The mapping applies to the initiator only.
    • initiator-ID—The mapping applies to the initiator only, and the initiator has no nickname.
    • host-name.*—The mapping applies to all initiators in the host.
    • host-group-name.*.*—The mapping applies to all hosts in this group.
  • Volume. Identifies the volumes to which the mapping applies:
    • volume-name—The mapping applies to the volume only.
    • volume-group-name.*—The mapping applies to all volumes in the volume group.
  • Access. Shows the type of access assigned to the mapping:
    • read-write—The mapping permits read and write access to volumes.
    • read-only—The mapping permits read access to volumes.
    • no-access—The mapping prevents access to volumes.
  • LUN. Shows whether the mapping uses a single LUN or a range of LUNs (indicated by *).
  • Ports. Lists the controller host ports to which the mapping applies. Each number represents corresponding ports on both controllers.
