Installing and Configuring the HBA and Driver
Here is an example of a disconnected LUN 0 being reported:
(CLARiiON Only) Passive-Not-Ready/ FailOverMode SP Bit Setting and Spinning Up
Devices
Two bit settings are required for PowerPath use on CLARiiON
arrays. The Array CommPath and FailoverMode bits are enabled by
default.
The FailoverMode bit setting provides for Passive-Not-Ready LUN
visibility.
The ArrayCommPath bit setting provides a pseudo-logical LUN 0
(LUNZ) for when a LUN 0 is not configured for a host.
If the FailOverMode is enabled on an SP for a Linux host, devices will
be reported as Not Ready. Depending on the OS, the host may still try
to spin up the devices.
The standard Linux behavior is to attempt to spin up the Not Ready
devices. This is acceptable Linux SCSI behavior, but a 100-second
delay is initiated for each Not Ready device encountered on particu-
lar distributions.
