Persistent binding instruction can be found on the web site of your HBA vendor.
e.g. Qlogic: https://support.qlogic.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/708/~/persistent-name-binding-in-solarisEmulex: http://www-dl.emulex.com/support/utilities/hbanyware/40/hbanyware.pdf
To configure devices in cluster, first of all ensure that they can be seen at OS level (/dev/rmt entries) on both nodes.
Ensure that NBU sg drivers can see devices using /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/sgscan. If not, use sg.build and sg.install to rebuild sg drivers (instructions in NBU Device Config Guide). Do this on both nodes.Next, use Device Config wizard on active node to add devices and add STU for virtual name.
Fail over service group to 2nd node and run wizard again for this node. No need to add STU - only one STU for virtual name.Detailed instructions in Clustered Master Server Guide.
