SYSMANHELP.HLB  —  IO  CREATE_WWID
    Assigns a specific, previously unused device name to a specific,
    previously unused worldwide identifier (WWID) from the SYSMAN IO
    LIST_WWID display.

    VSI recommends that you execute this command clusterwide and that
    you follow the command with a SYSMAN IO AUTOCONFIGURE command to
    actually configure the device.

    Format

      IO CREATE_WWID  devnam_string/WWID=wwid_string

1  –  Parameter

 devnam_string

    Specifies a device-name string. The string must be in the form
    $2$MGAn, where n is less than 9999.

2  –  Qualifier

2.1    /WWID

       /WWID=wwid_string

    Specifies a WWID string that comes directly from a SYSMAN IO
    LIST_WWID display.

    This qualifier is required.

3  –  Description

    This command is an alternative to the SYSMAN IO FIND_WWID
    command, which selects system-generated device names for the
    discovered WWIDs. Do not, however, use the SYSMAN IO CREATE_WWID
    command after the SYSMAN IO FIND_WWID command to redefine WWID
    correlations. Also, do not specify device and WWID strings in the
    SYSMAN IO CREATE_WWID command that are specified elsewhere in the
    cluster.

4  –  Example

  SYSMAN> SET ENVIRONMENT/CLUSTER
  SYSMAN> IO CREATE_
 WWID $2$MGA5/WWID=04100022:"DEC TZ89 (C) DECCX939S2777"
  SYSMAN> IO CREATE_WWID $2$MGA3/WWID=02000008:500E-09E0-0005-30D7
  SYSMAN> IO AUTOCONFIGURE

      The commands in this example create two device names, $2$MGA5
      and $2$MGA3, and configure the devices.
