Page 11 highlights

CAUTION: Changing host group modes for ports where servers are already installed and configured is disruptive and requires the server to be rebooted. Setting the system option modes The HP service representative sets the system option mode(s) based on the operating system and software configuration of the host. Notify your HP representative if you install storage agnostic software (such as backup or cluster software) that may require specific settings. Configuring the Fibre Channel ports Configure the disk array Fibre Channel ports by using XP Remote Web Console (shown) or XP Command View Advanced Edition Software. Select the settings for each port based on your storage area network topology. Use switch zoning if you connect different types of hosts to the array through the same switch.
