Performance note:
For best performance, If Server 1 and Server 2 are configured in an active/active cluster
configuration, where each is running a critical application software, each application should
use LUNs owned by a different VA controller, and the primary path of the server running the
application should be to the VA controller owning that application’s LUNs.
