System Drive Affinity and Programmable LUN Mapping
System drive affinity and programmable LUN mapping are configuration features that
work together to define how the host accesses the available storage space.
System drive affinity allows system drives to be assigned to any combination of
controller and host ports as follows:
Configurations with one RAID controller that has two host ports (through a switch,
for example) can use system drive affinity to define affinity of each system drive to
one or both host ports.
System drives that are not owned by a controller/host port are not accessible.
Note: The SGI supported topology for multi-path failover is Multi-Port; use the TPM
software to set the topology.
Caution: If two systems independently access the same volume of data, and the
operating system does not support file locking, data corruption may occur. To avoid this,
create two or more volumes (or LUNs) and configure each volume to be accessed by one
system only.
Programmable LUN mapping lets you assign any LUN ID (even multiple LUN IDs) to
any system drive on each port, or configure system drive assignments without specifying
the LUN, defaulting to the current mapping algorithm. System drives with the “all”
affinity are mapped to a LUN ID on every controller/host port.
Drive State Reporting
The RAID controller sends information about the status of each physical disk drive to the
array management software. The controller records the operational state of each drive
and a list of available target ID addresses. The controller determines which drives are
present and what target IDs are available. Then, it determines the status of the drives that
are present. If the disk drive is present, the location of the disk drive is considered
configured and the operational state of the disk drive is then determined. If the controller
determines the disk drive at the available target ID location is absent, the location of the
