For the server to recognize a logical drive/logical volume, it must first be mapped to a host channel/ID. When a logical drive/logical volume is mapped to a host channel/ID, it becomes a logical unit number (LUN). The following section describes how to map a logical drive/logical volume to a host channel and how to remove it. NOTE: When logical drives/logical
volumes are first created, unless Do Not Map is selected, the host
LUNs are automatically mapped after logical drives/logical volumes have
completed the initialization process. Adding or Changing (Mapping) a Host LUN
All available logical drives are displayed under Partitions. For your reference, Used LUNs displays a list of LUNs used for a specified channel and Partition Assignment displays a list of channels, IDs, and LUNs to which a partition has been assigned.
To map multiple partitions (up to 32), select the first partition, scroll to the last partition, and Shift-click to select everything in between. Then click Assign Host LUN. As a result, Unmap Host LUN becomes active.
NOTE: In the event that an error message is displayed when mapping a host channel, repeat steps 1 through 5. Deleting a Host LUN
