HP 3PAR AIX and IBM Virtual I/O Server Implementation Guide

6 Using IBM HACMP 5.5 with AIX
Installing IBM HACMP
HP supports HACMP 5.5 when using HP 3PAR MPIO 2.2 and when using HP 3PAR ODM 3.1 for
IBM AIX using enhanced concurrent volume groups in multihost environments.
NOTE: The use of non-concurrent volume groups is not supported.
Persistent reservation with HACMP 5.5 is not supported. Shared volume groups managed by
HACMP 5.5 and accessed through HP 3PAR MPIO 2.2 must be enhanced concurrent mode.
There are no other special considerations for using HACMP. See the HP 3PAR Multipath I/O 2.2
for IBM AIX User’s Guide for additional information.
See IBM HACMP documentation for HACMP planning, setup and usage. These IBM HACMP
documents are of particular importance:
• Concepts and Facilities Guide
• Planning and Installation Guide
• Administration Guide

HACMP Parameters for HP 3PAR Storage
There are no special settings required for IBM HACMP when using enhanced concurrent volume
groups that are different from settings specified by the IBM documentation for setting up enhanced
concurrent volume groups.
