The maximum number of HBAs supported per server depends on the server model. (See the server documentation.) For Tru64 UNIX, the
maximum is 64 HBAs per server when using 5.1a (or earlier), 255 HBAs per server when using 5.1b (or later).

Multipath software may impose additional restrictions.
Windows MPIO supports up to 32 paths per LUN.
Secure Path for AIX supports up to 32 LUNs per HBA.
4
The maximum number of configurable LUNs per HBA target may be less based on performance requirements.
5
VMware maximums are per VMware server, regardless of the number of guest operating systems.

EVA3000/5000 is not supported with the Xen operating system.
EVA data migration
The EVA family of Fibre Channel storage systems supports offline data migration using the HP
StorageWorks MPX200 Multifunction Router DMS feature. This feature provides for server-less, block
(LUN) level data movement between source and destination storage systems.
MPX200 Multifunction Router with offline data migration
The MPX200 Multifunction Router supports iSCSI, data migration, and FCIP. The base functionality
is iSCSI, with the option to add either data migration or FCIP (one other license-enabled function) for
standalone or concurrent operation. This section describes data migration usage and support. For
information about iSCSI configurations, see
MPX200 Multifunction Router with iSCSI
on page 360.
For information about FCIP, see
MPX200 Multifunction Router with FCIP
on page 308.
A license is required to enable the data migration feature. All licenses are chassis-based, enabling
data migration to be configured in both bays (slots) in a dual-blade chassis configuration.
The following licenses are available for offline data migration:
HP Storage Works MPX200 1TB Full Chassis Data Migration License
Includes the license to migrate
1 TB of data using a MPX200 chassis.
HP Storage Works MPX200 5TB Full Chassis Data Migration License
Includes the license to migrate
5 TB of data using a MPX200 chassis.
HP Storage Works MPX200 Full Chassis 1 Array Data Migration License
Includes the license to
migrate data from or to a single array using a MPX200 chassis.
NOTE:
The MPX200 data migration has a unique fan-in/fan-out licensing model. Using this particular
license, you can migrate data from multiple arrays to a single array or from a single array to
multiple arrays.
HP Storage Works MPX200 Full Chassis 3 Array Data Migration License
Includes the license to
migrate data from or to a single array on three unique migration tasks using a MPX200 chassis.
