Table 103 IBM AIX SAN configuration rules Storage systems1 IBM AIX SAN rules All supported • Supports HACMP/ES Clusters. For specific version support, contact an HP storage representative. • Zoning is required when IBM AIX is used in a heterogeneous SAN with other operating systems. • Supports active/active and active/passive failover mode. A multipathing driver is required. • Supports multipathing high-availability configuration implemented in multiple fabrics or in a single fabric with zoned paths. • For specific Secure Path zoning requirements, contact an HP storage representative. • Supports boot from SAN for XP storage systems. For more information, see "XP and VA SAN boot support" on page 268. • For HP Continuous Access EVA configuration information, see "HP Continuous Access EVA SAN integration" on page 254. 1Unlisted but supported storage systems have no additional SAN configuration restrictions.
