PowerPath Configurations for Windows
Read this section if you are installing a Windows Server 2003 or
Windows 2000 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 Windows Server 2003 or Windows
2000 and not connected to any storage system.
existing server - A server running Windows Server 2003 or
Windows 2000 that is already connected to one or more storage
systems.
new storage system - A CX300, CX500, CX500i, or CX700 storage
system that has the factory default settings and that has never been
connected to a server.
existing storage system - A CX-Series, FC4500, or FC4700-Series
storage system that is already connected to one or more servers and is
in a Navisphere domain.
All CLARiiON storage systems connected to a Windows server must be
CX-Series or FC-Series storage systems that are supported for that server. If
any other type of CLARiiON storage system is connected to the server, the
server cannot run PowerPath.
