Installing and conﬁguring the FCSAs

You can connect multiple clusters of various operating systems to the same switch using

appropriate switch zoning and array LUN security as follows:

•

Use Secure Manager for LUN isolation when multiple NonStop systems connect

through a shared array port. Secure Manager provides LUN security by allowing

you to restrict which LUNs each host can access.

•

Do not connect other operating systems to the same XP ports or even use a port

that shares a processor with the same port as NonStop systems.

•

Use SAN switches dedicated to NonStop connections, or solutions that have

been qualiﬁed by HP.

Environment

Single node SAN

Multiple node SAN

The HP service representative connects the disk array to the host by:

Verifying operational status of the disk array channel adapters, LDEVs, and paths.

Connecting the Fibre Channel cables between the disk array and the fabric switch

or host.

Verifying the ready status of the disk array and peripherals.

Deﬁning the paths

Use Remote Web Console XP (shown), Command View XP, or Command View XP

Advanced Edition to deﬁne paths (LUNs) between hosts and volumes in the disk array.

For non-host mirrored disks, create two identical host groups on two different ports (one

port in each cluster in the array) with identical LUNs in each group. For host mirrored

disks, conﬁgure each of the Primary (P) and Mirrored (M) volumes as two identical

host groups on two different ports (one port in each cluster in the array) with identical

LUNs in each group..

This process is also called "LUN mapping."
