4.2 Supported P6000 software operating environments This table lists the supported servers, operating systems and application integration for P6000 software. A bullet (•) indicates support on all P6000 EVA models, a specific model number indicates support with that model only, and a blank cell indicates no support. The environments are: HP P6000 Business Copy Basic I/O-The ability for HP P6000 Business Copy to work with an operating system or application is determined by the operating system support documents posted on the Single Point of Connectivity Knowledge (SPOCK) website (http://www.hp.com/storage/spock). (To enable SPOCK access, you must sign up for an HP Passport.) If an operating system is supported with a particular P6000 EVA model and controller software version, then HP P6000 Business Copy is supported with that operating system. There may or may not be support through HP P6000 RSM on that operating system, as indicated in this table. HP P6000 Continuous Access Basic I/O-The ability for HP P6000 Continuous Access to work with an operating system or application is determined by the operating system support documents posted on the Single Point of Connectivity Knowledge (SPOCK) website (http://www.hp.com/storage/spock). (To enable SPOCK access, you must sign up for an HP Passport.) If an operating system is supported with a particular P6000 EVA model and controller software version, then HP P6000 Continuous Access is supported with that operating system. There may or may not be support through HP P6000 RSM on that operating system, as indicated in this table. HP P6000 RSM host agent-The HP P6000 RSM host agent is installed on servers running this operating system. The CLUI client is also supported on this operating system if the HP P6000 RSM host agent is supported on it. HP Storage Volume Growth-The ability for HP Storage Volume Growth to work with this operating system. HP P6000 RSM Server-The ability for HP P6000 Replication Solutions Manager to be installed on this operating system. You can use HP P6000 RSM Server to manage LUNs that are presented to any P6000 EVA-supported operating system. HP P6000 SmartStart Storage-The ability for HP P6000 SmartStart Storage to work with this operating system. HP P6000 CV and EVAPerf-The ability for HP P6000 Command View and HP Command View EVAPerf to work with this operating system. HP SSSU-The ability for HP StorageWorks Storage Scripting Utility to be installed on and work with this operating system.
