Abstract:
A method and system for creating a logical unit number (“LUN”) in a storage area network is provided. The method includes selecting a storage sub-system from a list of available storage sub-subsystems for which the LUN is created in a wizard like setting, wherein a display attribute may be used for depicting connectivity of the storage sub-system to a server and/or host bus adapter; configuring the LUN for the selected storage sub-system; and assigning the LUN to at least one server. The method also includes, extending, shrinking and/or deleting an existing LUN by using a graphical user interface and selecting the LUN associated with a storage sub-system and a server. The method also includes partitioning a LUN in a wizard like setting by assigning a partition size, and drive letter.
