Hitachi Dynamic Link Manager Software GUI Help
This section explains how to view path information. Path information can be displayed in the following two formats:
- Configuration-diagram format
This format uses a diagram to display the configuration of the host, host bus adapters, paths, channel adapters, LUs, and storage subsystem.
- List format
This format displays path information in a list.
You can switch the display format for the path information by clicking the Configuration tab or the Path List tab.
The following explains how to view the path information in each format.
- Organization of this subsection
- (1) Viewing path information in the configuration-diagram format
- (2) Viewing path information in the list format
(1) Viewing path information in the configuration-diagram format
To view the path information in the configuration-diagram format:
- Display the Path Management window.
The Path List view of the Path Management window is displayed.
For details on displaying the Path Management window, see (1) Displaying the Path Management window in 3.1.2 Displaying or closing the Path Management window.
- Click the Configuration tab.
The Configuration view is displayed in the view frame.
- In the tree frame, select the storage subsystem or the LU connected to the path whose information you want to view.
If a storage subsystem is selected, information on the paths that connect the host and the selected storage subsystem is displayed as a diagram in the view frame.
If an LU is selected, information on the paths that connect the host and the selected LU is displayed as a diagram in the view frame. Note that the paths to be displayed in the Configuration view can be restricted or expanded using the Type and Status check boxes in the view frame. For details on the tree frame, see 5.2.2 Tree frame. For details on the Configuration view in the view frame, see 5.2.4 Configuration view in the view frame.
(2) Viewing path information in the list format
To view path information in the list format:
- Display the Path Management window.
The Path List view of the Path Management window is displayed.
For details on displaying the Path Management window, see (1) Displaying the Path Management window in 3.1.2 Displaying or closing the Path Management window.
- In the tree frame, select the host, storage subsystem, or LU connected to the path whose information you want to view.
If a host is selected, information on all the paths connected to the host is displayed in a list in the view frame.
If a storage subsystem is selected, information on the paths that connect the host and the selected storage subsystem is displayed in a list in the view frame.
If an LU is selected, information of the paths that connect the host and the selected LU is displayed in a list in the view frame. Note that the paths to be displayed in the Configuration view can be restricted or expanded using the Type and Status check boxes in the view frame. For details on the tree frame, see 5.2.2 Tree frame. For details on the Path List view in the view frame, see 5.2.3 Path List view in the view frame.
