HP-UX Host Utilities is a NetApp host software that provides a command line toolkit on your HP-UX host. The toolkit is installed when you install the NetApp Host Utilities package. This kit provides the sanlun utility, which helps you manage ONTAP LUNs and host bus adapters. The sanlun command returns information about the LUNs mapped to your host, multipathing, and information necessary to create initiator groups.

In the following example, the sanlun lun show command returns ONTAP LUN information.

# sanlun lun show all

controller(7mode)/ device host lun
vserver(Cmode)           lun-pathname                   filename          adapter    protocol   size   mode

Note

This SAN toolkit is common across all Host Utilities configurations and protocols. As a result, all of the components don't apply to every configuration. Unused components don't affect your system performance.

The SAN Toolkit is supported on AIX and PowerVM/VIOS OS versions.
