Unable to add RAID Groups while creating virtual block pool
I am working to integrate Hitachi USPV (RAID Groups/No Pool) to VIPR. I could successfully add the storage system and create virtual array but unable to fine the RAID groups while creating block pool. Can you please let me know if I am missing something.

Hi,
It is a trial version of VIPR with just one controller.
VIPR: vipr-2.1.0.1.437
Hitachi Comman Suite: 7.5.0-02
Hitachi USPV: Microcode 60-08-45-00/00

The ViPR Support matrix shows HiCommand 7.4.1, 7.6.1, and 8.0 are supported. 7.5 might work but it’s also possible that it doesn’t work correctly for ViPR. Is it possible to try 7.6.1?

And yes, I selected thick. I dont have Pool License on USPV, so I wanted to use RAID groups to create block pool on VIPR.

Can you identify the full version of the ViPR Controller software? Also, the full version of HiCommand and the full model# of the USPV?
In the vPool configuration, did you specify "Thick"?

Hi Ganga,
I am able to see pools under storage system in VIPR. But when I could not see them when trying to create a block pool.

Hi,
Please find the attached log.
Do we need to add fabric before we create block pool? I haven't added FC fabric yet.
Regards,
Srinath.

Yes, you need to have a fabric with the storage array front end ports assigned before you will be able to build a vPool.
