configured.
• If the persistent ports feature is not configured correctly and you are performing an online
update, you will need to compare your host configuration to the supported configurations
that are listed on the Single Point of Connectivity Knowledge (SPOCK)for HP Storage
Products website at:http://www.hp.com/storage/spock.

Ports.
