Novell NetWare SAN rules This section describes the SAN rules for Novell NetWare. For current storage system support, see the SPOCK website at http://www.hp.com/storage/spock. You must sign up for an HP Passport to enable access. Table 108 describes the SAN configuration rules for Novel NetWare. Table 109 describes support for Novell NetWare multipathing coexistence. Table 108 NetWare SAN configuration rules Storage systems1 All supported NetWare SAN rules • Zoning is required when NetWare is used in a heterogeneous SAN with other operating systems. • Supports NetWare Cluster Services. For specific version support, contact an HP storage representative. • Supports multipathing high-availability configuration in multiple fabrics or in a single fabric with zoned paths. VA7100 EVA4000 EVA4100 EVA6000 EVA6100 EVA8000 EVA8100 XP48 XP512 XP128 XP1024 XP10000 XP12000 XP20000 XP24000 • Supports boot from SAN. For more information, see "XP and VA SAN boot support" on page 268. • EVA4000/4100/6000/6100/8000/8100 with NetWare Clusters supports up to the maximum number of nodes supported by NetWare. EVA3000 EVA5000 • Zoning is required when NetWare is used in a heterogeneous SAN with other operating systems. • Supports active/active or active/passive failover mode. • Multipathing: Requires Secure Path for active/passive failover and NetWare MPIO for active/active failover when configured with two or more paths. Failover configurations support clusters with a maximum of 16 nodes. • Supports connection of single HBA servers. • For HP Continuous Access EVA configuration information, see "HP Continuous Access EVA SAN integration" on page 254. NetWare 6.5 • Supports NetWare Clusters with up to 16 nodes when using VCS 3x and NetWare 6.5. VCS 4x nl supported up to the maximum number of nodes supported by NetWare.
