◦ 65,536 with four DPM groups
• DPM BE paths 4,096 maximum per DPM (regardless of pairs, all must see same storage)
NOTE: For Large LUNs, every 2 TB counts as one LUN. For example, a Large LUN of 8 TB would
count as 4 LUNs against the maximum of 2,047 LUNs per EVA.

Storage management server integration
A management server may be required to manage a SVSP storage system. Two management
interfaces are available on the SVSP 3.0.2 (or later) version, the standard using the Java-based
interface and the Command View SVSP. The management server communicates with storage
systems out-of-band through an Ethernet connection.
