2
EVA4100/6100/8100 requires XCS firmware 6.110 or later.
3
3PAR storage requires that you enable both DynamicTracking and FastFail parameters on each of the IBM AIX FC HBAs connected
to 3PAR storage. 3PAR OS 3.1.2 is not supported with IBM AIX 5.3. For more information, see the HP 3PAR AIX Implementation
Guide.
4
Connection to a common server with different HBAs requires separate HBA zones for XP and P6000/EVA.
5
EVA4400/6400/8400 requires MPIO 1.0.4.1
6
Antemeta is supported with IBM native HBAs.
7
Requires AIX 5.3 (or later).

coexistence” (page 208).
Linux SAN rules
This section describes the SAN rules for Linux.
For current storage system support, see the SPOCK website at http://www.hp.com/storage/spock.
You must sign up for an HP Passport to enable access.
