the HP Array Configuration Utility user guide. Install the MPIO software, if used. Ensure the array is connected through a Fibre Channel switch to the hardware provider server as explained previously. NOTE: When using the VDS framework to create and manage LUNs, make LUNs close to the same size as the physical disk size. You can make LUNs smaller than a physical disk (or disks, if spanning multiple disks), but any space left over on the physical disk(s) cannot be used. For example, if you have three 36 GB drives totalling 108 GB and you create a LUN of 20 GB spanning all three disks, the remaining 88 GB are unusable. 20 Preconfiguring for the HP MSA VDS hardware provider
