Introduction
EMC Storage Array
Configuration
EMC storage array configuration is performed by an EMC Customer
Engineer (CE).
Refer to the EMC Support Matrix for required bit settings on Symmetrix Fibre
Channel directors.
To verify that the Linux host can see all of the target EMC devices,
configure the host as described Chapter 2, and use the command
more /proc/scsi/scsi. This command will provide a listing of the
attached EMC storage array devices.
