Best practices • Go to the HP storage website: http://www.hp.com/storage for your array controller. Product websites are updated to include the latest: • Hardware, firmware, and driver compatibility information. • Firmware and/or software. • System documentation. • Use provided installation documents to gather items required for your installation, learn about the installation process, and physically install devices. • Record information about your system in provided checklists and worksheets. This information is needed when configuring the storage, entering connection information, and setting up multipathing; and for future configuration changes, reference, and troubleshooting purposes. • Sign up with Subscriber's Choice to receive e-mail notifications and alerts about your HP devices: http://www.hp.com/go/e-updates. • Separate management traffic from iSCSI storage traffic. Provide separate physical LANs or create Virtual LANs (VLANs) to segment the traffic. • Ensure that initiators and targets are on the same Layer 2 Ethernet LAN. This guarantees the integrity of the data traffic and maintains high network performance levels. • Ensure the availability of the storage: • Provide redundant power sources-Plug the two power supplies on the device into separate Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) on separate sources of power. If you have only one UPS, maintain separate power paths by plugging one power supply to the UPS on one power source and plug the other power supply to a separate power source. • Provide redundant data paths-Include two separate and isolated iSCSI storage networks and the associated hardware (switches, MSA controllers, etc.) and software components HP Storage Management Utility user guide 17
