    SP - Each server must support eight paths to an SP (32 HBA ports x 8 paths = 256 initiators, the maximum number per CX600) Note that each server has sixteen paths to the storage system. Some examples of valid server connections to a CX600 with MirrorView are • Highly-available dual-HBA configuration

    storage systems - Each server must support four paths to an SP (30 HBA ports x 4 paths = 120 initiators. These 120 initiators + 8 MirrorView initiators = 128 initiators, the maximum number per CX400 or FC4700.) Note that each server has eight paths to the storage system. Sample CX200 configurations
