The management server now uses host security groups instead of LUN masking and LUN mapping. With the introduction of host security groups, the management server has a new definition of mapped for this release. Mapped refers to capacity that is accessible by one or more hosts external to the array (aggregated capacity of volumes that are accessible from hosts external to the subsystem).
The number of initiators allowed in the host security group depends on the type of storage system: Table 137 Allowed Initiators in Host Security Groups
Storage System | Allowed Initiators in Host Security Groups |
|
|
EMC CLARiiON | 0 or more initiators |
|
|
LSI | 0 or more initiators |
|
|
HDS | 0 or more initiators |
|
|
HP EVA | 0 or more initiators |
|
|
HP MSA | 1 initiator |
|
|
IBM | Only 1 initiator per host security group |
|
|
Sun 35xx | 1 initiator per host security group |
|
|
Sun 6920 and 6940 | Only 1 initiator per host security group |
|
|
Sun 6130 | 0 or more initiators |
|
|
Symmetrix | 1 initiator for host security masking |
|
|
Xiotech | 1 initiator |
