Question

Options

• Athe name of the host being provisioned from the storage system
• Bthe WWN of the FC port of the storage system connected to the host's HBA
• Cthe FC port name of the storage system connected to the host's HBA
• Dthe FC path priority settings

• A
  94% (46)
• B
  4% (2)
• D
  2% (1)

Explanation

When provisioning storage with Hitachi Device Manager, you must supply the host name (A) so the system can identify and associate the storage allocation with the correct server, and the FC port name of the storage system connected to the host's HBA (C) so Device Manager knows which port on the array to use for establishing the data path. Option B is wrong because the WWN of the storage system's FC port is auto-discovered by Device Manager - you don't manually enter it during provisioning. Option D (FC path priority settings) is optional performance tuning, not a required provisioning input.

Memory tip: Think "Who gets it, and how does it connect?" - you always need the host name (who) and the FC port name (how), while WWNs and priorities are handled automatically or configured later.
