Fabric zoning and LUN security for multiple operating systems

Environment

(non-clustered)
Clustered SAN

You can connect multiple clusters of various operating systems to the same
switch and fabric using appropriate zoning and LUN security as follows:
• Host zones must contain only homogeneous operating systems.
• Storage port zones may overlap if more than one operating system
needs to share an array port.
• Heterogeneous operating systems may share an XP array port if you
use Secure Manager and set the appropriate host group and mode. All
others must connect to a dedicated XP array port.
• Use Secure Manager for LUN isolation when multiple hosts connect
through a shared array port. Secure Manager provides LUN security
by allowing you to restrict which LUNs each host can access.
