Changing the LUN number

  • Troubleshooting
  • April 30, 2015

Resolution

Device name cannot be changed since it goes directly from StarWind source code and exist there as a constant value. Editing of the LUN number is available for stand-alone, non-HA basic image file device only.

Below is an instruction to change LUN number for non-HA device:

Open StarWind.cfg file that you can find in the StarWind installation folder.

Find the string of target you are interested in. For example:

<target name=”iqn.2008-08.com.starwindsoftware:sw-dev-pc5.starwind.local-storage3″ devices=”imagefile2,RamDrive1″ alias=”Storage3″ clustered=”Yes”/>

Add LUN numbers after devices names:

<target name=”iqn.2008-08.com.starwindsoftware:sw-dev-pc5.starwind.local-storage3″ devices=”imagefile2:5,RamDrive1:15” alias=”Storage3″ clustered=”Yes”/>

Restart StarWind service.
