Block Storage

Currently, I have the task of setting up a GAD pair between two E790H systems, with one G350 as the quorum disk.

I have installed Hitachi Storage Navigator on all three systems using Windows 10.

According to the Storage Navigator User Guide, port 31001 is used for the Command Control Interface, so I expected port 31001 to be open.

However, when I tried to connect to the E790H storage system using CCI with the SVP IP, the connection failed. I checked using netstat, and port 31001 was not listed.

I also created and mounted a command device on each E790 storage system, but I am still unable to connect with CCI.

Can someone advise on how to connect to the storage system using CCI?

This is my HORCM Conf file :

HORCM_MON
#ip_address        service         poll(10ms)    timeout(10ms)
localhost            10010           1000            3000

HORCM_CMD
\\.\IPCMD-10.1.40.49-31001

Hello Luu

I was looking for a GAD setup video. But couldn't find one off hand.

To setup Replication paths, external volumes and or Quorums, the easiest way to do this is via the embedded GUI. Just access the controller IP(not svp in the case of the 350). And do it under 'other'.

IF you really want to use command line you have the following options: 

But for setting up replication or GAD. You can also connect directly to the Controllers on your E790 by:

ssh <username>@<ip> -p 20522

Login with a local username and password like maintenance and you should have a horcm cli.

Your HORCM File seems fine. Did you put it in the right spot? What happens if you do a horcmstart <instance>?

Here is my horcm file for an IP Command device for you to compare:

HORCM_MON
NONE 31090 1000 3000

HORCM_CMD
\\.\IPCMD-192.168.1.1-31001

For a Physical CMD device it should look something like this:

HORCM_MON
NONE 31091 1000 3000
HORCM_CMD
\\.\PhysicalDrive1

@Luu Hung Anh - For VSP E series, you should be using one of the controllers' IP address, and not the SVP's IP address, in the horcm file.
