Creates a new initiator group (“-f” for fcp; “-i” for iSCSI). Optionally specify the initiator node names (node…) or add them using the igroup add command. Adds a node to a specified initiator group. Displays the nodes in the specified initiator group. Omit initiator_group to see all igroups. Interactive LUN creation. Combines the lun create , igroup create, igroup add , and lun map command functions. Manual LUN creation. Enter size as integer bytes with one of the following suffixes: m (megabytes), g (gigabytes), or t (terabytes). Makes that LUN accessible to initiators in that igroup. Provide a LUN ID or take the default (the lowest available value). Displays general (-v), mapping (-m), or clone (-c) information about all or a specified subset of LUN(s). Clones a LUN. Creates (writable) LUN storage at this LUN path. Destroys the specified LUNs and all their data. Use -f if LUN is in use. Moves a LUN to a new path in the same volume. Enables and disables block-protocol access to a LUN Displays block access statistics for the specified LUN. Use -z to clear statistics; -o for extended stats; and -a to display stats for all LUNs. Turns off scheduled snapshots for a volume containing LUNs. Strongly recommended to enable use of space reservations.
vserver {fcp} show vserver fcp initiator show
Displays current status of the FC targets. Displays details of FC initiators. Interactive Vserver, volume, LUN, and igroup creation. Manual LUN creation. Enter size as an integer with one of the following suffixes: m (megabytes), g (gigabytes), or t (terabytes). Manual initiator group creation. Use the optional port set to limit which initiator ports access LUNs mapped to this igroup.
lun modify -vserver name -volume vol_name -lun lun_name -state {online | offline} lun delete -vserver name -volume vol_name -lun lun_name
Makes the specified LUN accessible to initiators in the specified igroup. Specify optional LUN ID or take default of lowest available value. Displays the initiators in all igroups or in the specified initiator group or for the specified Vserver. Lists LUNs. Use -instance to display more details. Add parameters to filter the list; run man lun show for available parameters. Enables or disables block-protocol access to the specified LUN.

Verifies the FCP licenses are installed on the cluster. Enables FC on the specified Vserver. Starts the FC service on the specified Vserver. Stops the FC service on the specified Vserver. Creates a data LIF for FC. You must create a data LIF in each Vserver on each node to enable failover.

General notes
Clustered Data ONTAP support for AIX host utilities requires Data ONTAP 8.2 and later.
Data ONTAP operating in 7-Mode Management commands
Verifies status of LIFs. Creates a port set that you can add to an igroup to limit which LIFs can be used to access LUNs mapped to that igroup.

Notes
Space reservations are on by default at the LUN level unless you include the –o noreserve option to the lun create command. Space Reservations can be set on the qtree, file, or LUN level o qtree level: qtree reservation qtree_path [enable|disable] o LUN level: lun set reservation lun_path [enable|disable] Turn off scheduled snapshots: snap sched vol_name 0 0 0 or vol options vol_name nosnap on Set the snap reserve on the volume containing LUNs to 0: snap reserve volx 00 FC service management commands fcp config [ adapter [ up | down ] Configures the FC target adapters on the filer.
