The Host Attachment allows AIX MPIO device driver configure methods to properly identify and configure ESS, SVC, DS6000, DS8000, DS4000, DS5000 and DS5020 LUNs
The host attachment script for AIX adds ESS(2105), SVC(2145), DS6000(1750), DS8000(2107), DS4000(1724/1814/1722/1742/1815), DS5000(1818) and DS5020(1814) device information to allow AIX to properly configure 2105/2145/1750/2107/1724/1814/1722/1742/1815/1818 hdisks. The 2105/2145/1750/2107/1724/1814/1722/1742/1815/1818 device information allows AIX to:
- Identify the hdisk(s) as a 2105/2145/1750/2107/1724/1814/1722/1742/1815/1818 hdisk.
- Set default hdisk attributes such as queue_depth and timeout values.
- Indicate to AIX device driver configure method to configure 2105/2145/1750/2107/1724/1814/1722/1742/1815/1818 hdisk as MPIO-capable devices.
Supported AIX levels include:
- AIX 520 ML6/TL10 or up
- AIX 530 ML2/TL6 or up
-AIX 610 TL1 or up
- AIX 710
