KGPSA-CA mapping to a storage controller using its "presentation" mode
...
The main benefit in this type of mapping is a flexible way of the virtual disks management depending on the mapped storage controller configuration. For example if an extra disk is added to the storage controller it automatically appears as a new disk unit on the corresponding KGPSA-CA virtual adapter mapped to that storage controller.

Below is an example of KGPSA-CA PCI FC disk controller, mapped to some storage controller (for example SAN) using its "presentation" mode:
...
| Type of mapping | Description |
|---|---|
| storage_controller_path_id = <Storage controller path ID> | "Storage controller path ID" is a storage (for example SAN) controller path ID. This ID can be obtained from the special utility "Host Device Check". Once specified, all the disks attached to the storage are automatically mapped as disk units to CHARON-AXP. |
