Contributors NetAppZacharyWambold netapp-jolieg

The Linux Unified Host Utilities package includes tools to manage NetApp storage, including failover policies and physical paths.

Steps
  1. Use the NetApp Interoperability Matrix Tool to determine the appropriate version of Unified Host Utilities to install.

    The versions are listed in a column within each supported configuration.

  2. Download the Unified Host Utilities from NetApp Support.

    Note Alternatively, you can use the SANtricity SMdevices utility to perform the same functions as the Unified Host Utility tool. The SMdevices utility is included as part of the SMutils package. The SMutils package is a collection of utilities to verify what the host sees from the storage array. It is included as part of the SANtricity software installation.
