NOTE: Command View EVA 6.0 (or later) includes a more flexible security feature, which requires the establishment of read/write (ability to manipulate storage) and/or read-only accounts. Before using Command View EVA, be sure to review and implement the Command View account security feature setup procedures. Once you enable security, you cannot disable it. Table 133 describes the rules for using a management server for EVA storage systems. Table 133 Storage management server configuration rules Rule nl number 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Description A storage management server is required for any fabric that contains an EVA storage system. Command View 9.0 or later is required for the EVA6400/8400 Command View 8.0 or later is required for the EVA4400. Command View EVA 5.0 (or later) supports management of multiple fabrics from a single instance. Command View EVA 5.0 (or later) is required for the EVA iSCSI Connectivity Option. Command View EVA 4x (or later) supports EVA4000/4100/6000/6100/8000/8100 storage systems using XCS 6x (or later), and EVA3000/5000 storage systems using VCS 4.100 (or later). If a storage management server resides in the fabric, it is recommended that it be configured in a separate zone from all operating systems. Create a storage management zone for the storage management server and the elements it will monitor and manage. 8 It is not necessary to include the switch WWNs or server HBA WWNs in the storage management server zone. Management communication to these devices from the storage management server is done out-of-band or outside the fabric via TCP/IP. 9 EVA Element Manager can operate in a dual-fabric configuration. Up to 16 EVA storage systems can be managed from a single instance of Command View Element Manager. 10 Multiple storage management servers per fabric are allowed. A single EVA may be zoned with more then one instance of Command View EVA, independent of where Command View is loaded (SMA, GPS, management station, or HP Storage Server). 11 Each storage system can be managed by only one active storage management server. Any standby storage management server can be powered on, but the Command View EVA or HP Continuous Access EVA user interface must not control the storage system. For more information, see the HP StorageWorks Continuous Access EVA planning guide at http://h18006.www1.hp.com/products/storage/software/conaccesseva/index.html. 12 For fabrics with more than 1,024 HBAs, the HSV controller must be zoned to limit access to a maximum of 1,024 HBAs. Add zones to the fabric as needed to adhere to the 1,024 HBA limit. SAN Design Reference Guide 257

NOTE:
Command View EVA 6.0 (or later) includes a more flexible security feature, which requires the
establishment of read/write (ability to manipulate storage) and/or read-only accounts. Before using
Command View EVA, be sure to review and implement the Command View account security feature
setup procedures. Once you enable security, you cannot disable it.
Table 133
describes the rules for using a management server for EVA storage systems.
Table 133 Storage management server configuration rules
Description
Rule
nl
number
A storage management server is required for any fabric that contains an EVA storage system.
1
Command View 9.0 or later is required for the EVA6400/8400
2
Command View 8.0 or later is required for the EVA4400.
3
Command View EVA 5.0 (or later) supports management of multiple fabrics from a single
instance.
4
Command View EVA 5.0 (or later) is required for the EVA iSCSI Connectivity Option.
5
Command View EVA 4
x
(or later) supports EVA4000/4100/6000/6100/8000/8100
storage systems using XCS 6
x
(or later), and EVA3000/5000 storage systems using VCS
4.100 (or later).
6
If a storage management server resides in the fabric, it is recommended that it be configured
in a separate zone from all operating systems.
Create a storage management zone for the storage management server and the elements it
will monitor and manage.
7
It is not necessary to include the switch WWNs or server HBA WWNs in the storage
management server zone.
Management communication to these devices from the storage management server is done
out-of-band or outside the fabric via TCP/IP.
8
EVA Element Manager can operate in a dual-fabric configuration. Up to 16 EVA storage
systems can be managed from a single instance of Command View Element Manager.
9
Multiple storage management servers per fabric are allowed. A single EVA may be zoned
with more then one instance of Command View EVA, independent of where Command View
is loaded (SMA, GPS, management station, or HP Storage Server).
10
Each storage system can be managed by only one active storage management server.
Any standby storage management server can be powered on, but the Command View EVA
or HP Continuous Access EVA user interface must not control the storage system.

For fabrics with more than 1,024 HBAs, the HSV controller must be zoned to limit access to
a maximum of 1,024 HBAs.
Add zones to the fabric as needed to adhere to the 1,024 HBA limit.
