Three kinds of SPCs are supported in the HP 3PAR Storage System environment: • Matched-Set SPC, its deviceID format is MS::, where is the notation of the target port and is the system assigned ID of the host where initiator port(s) reside. For this kind of view, a volume is exposed to the specified host only through the specified target port. The host can contain multiple initiator ports, hence this kind of view can have associations to more than one StorageHardwareIDs. This view can also have associations to multiple StorageVolumes, but only one association to the target port. ◦ Supported ExposePaths Use Cases: - Create new view - Add LU to view - Add initiator port to view - allowed only if the initiator port is zoned together with the target port ◦ Supported HidePaths Use Cases: - Remove view - Remove LU from view - Remove initiator port from view • Host-See SPC, its deviceID format is HS:, where the is the system assigned ID of the host where initiator port(s) reside. For this kind of view, a volume is exposed to the specified host regardless of the target port. The host can contain multiple initiator ports, hence this kind of view can have associations to more than one StorageHardwareIDs. This view can also have associations to multiple StorageVolumes and target ports. ◦ Supported ExposePaths Use Cases: - Create new view - Add LU to view - Add initiator port to view ◦ Supported HidePaths Use Cases: - Remove view - Remove LU from view - Remove initiator port from view • Port-Present SPC, its deviceID format is PP:, where is the notation of the target port. For this kind of view, a volume is exposed through the specified target port regardless of the host the port is connected to or zoned with. The host can contain multiple initiator ports, hence this kind of view can have associations to more than one Masking and Mapping Subprofile 77
