A Connecting External Storage Systems

This appendix provides configuration information for connecting various external storage systems to the HP XP24000/XP20000 storage systems.

AMS/WMS Storage System

System Parameters

Table 34 (page 134) explains whether to specify system parameters when making settings on ports on the AMS and WMS storage systems. You can either specify or omit any other parameters.

When connecting an AMS or WMS storage system, use Remote Web Console Modular or Remote Web Console Modular 2 to set the data transfer speed of the external port to a fixed value other than Auto. Also, set the data transfer speed of the target port of the AMS or WMS storage system to a fixed value according to the data transfer speed of the external port.
