by the SNMP manager. SNMP properties are usually set from the SVP but they can also be set remotely using XP Remote Web Console, XP Command View, or XP Command View Advanced Edition. Refer to the applicable user's guide for procedures. 12 Installing and configuring NonStop for the XP disk array - HP XP24000 | HP StorageWorks XP Disk Array Configuration Guide for NonStop XP240 - Page 13
your HP service representative can perform these tasks for you. Setting the host mode and host group mode for the disk array ports After the disk array is installed, you must set the host mode for each disk array port to match the host OS. Set the host mode using LUN Manager in XP Remote Web Console - HP XP24000 | HP StorageWorks XP Disk Array Configuration Guide for NonStop XP240 - Page 14
Setting the System Option Modes The NonStop servers have no operating system specific System Option Mode requirements. Configuring the Fibre Channel ports Configure the disk array Fibre Channel ports by using XP Remote Web Console (shown), XP Command View, or XP Command View Advanced Edition.

selecting a unique arbitrated loop physical address (AL-PA) or loop ID for each port. For specific values, refer to the HP StorageWorks XP LUN Manager User's Guide applicable to your array. Fabric and connection parameter settings Set each array port to FABRIC ON or OFF with connections of POINT-TO - HP XP24000 | HP StorageWorks XP Disk Array Configuration Guide for NonStop XP240 - Page 16
and array LUN security as follows: • Use Secure Manager for LUN isolation when multiple NonStop systems connect through a shared array port. Secure Manager provides LUN security by allowing you to restrict which LUNs each host can access. 16 Installing and configuring NonStop for the XP disk array - HP XP24000 | HP StorageWorks XP Disk Array Configuration Guide for NonStop XP240 - Page 17
and fault tolerance, HP recommends the use of two XP disk arrays, one for the Primary disks and one for the Mirror disks. This process is also called "LUN mapping." In XP Remote Web Console and XP Command View, LUN mapping includes: • Configuring ports • Enabling LUN security on the ports • Creating - HP XP24000 | HP StorageWorks XP Disk Array Configuration Guide for NonStop XP240 - Page 18
details, see HP StorageWorks XP LUN Manager User's Guide or XP Command View Advanced Edition Device Manager Web Client User's Guide. Record the LUNS and their ports, WWNs, nicknames, and LDEVs. This information will be used later to verify host and device configuration. Verifying disk array device - HP XP24000 | HP StorageWorks XP Disk Array Configuration Guide for NonStop XP240 - Page 19
resolve an error condition, ask your HP support representative for assistance. See "Calling the HP support center" on page 19.

This appendix provides information about disk array supported emulations and emulation specifications. Some parameters may not be relevant to your array. Consult your HP representative for information about supported configurations for your system. Supported emulations HP recommends using OPEN-V as - HP XP24000 | HP StorageWorks XP Disk Array Configuration Guide for NonStop XP240 - Page 24
maximum configurable LDEV size depends on the RAID level and size of physical disks configured in the array. The minimum size is 46 MB. Note 3: The array capacity displayed by an operating system may be slightly different from the values listed. Note 4: NonStop supports LUSE and CVS.

LUSE feature allows a LUN to be associated with 1 to 36 LDEVs. Essentially, LUSE makes it possible for applications to access a single large pool of storage. The LUSE feature is available when the HP StorageWorks XP Array Manager product is installed. Open Fibre Control.
