PowerPath Configurations for Solaris
Read this section if you are installing a Solaris PowerPath
configuration with a new or existing server and a new or existing
storage system. A new and existing server and a new and existing
storage system are defined as follows:
new server - A server running Solaris and not connected to any
storage system.
existing server - A server running Solaris and that is already
connected to one or more storage systems.
new storage system - A CX300, CX500, or CX700 storage system that
has the factory default settings and has never been connected to a
server.
existing storage system - CX300, CX400, CX500, CX600, CX700,
FC4500, or FC4700-Series that is already connected to one or more
servers and is in a Navisphere domain.
All CLARiiON storage systems connected to the server must be CX300,
CX400, CX500, CX600, CX700, FC4500, FC4700-Series, or FC5300
storage systems. If any other type of CLARiiON storage system is connected
to the server, the server cannot run PowerPath.
