NonStop
This appendix provides information about supported emulations and emulation specifications.
Some parameters might not be relevant to your array. Consult your HP representative for information
about supported configurations for your system.
Supported emulations
HP recommends using OPEN-V as the emulation for better performance and features that may not
be supported with the legacy emulations (OPEN-[389LE]).

OPEN-V
1
The availability of an emulation depends on the disk array.
2
OPEN-V is a variable device type. The maximum configurable LDEV size depends on the RAID
level and size of physical disks configured in the array. The minimum size is 46 MB.
3
The array capacity displayed by an operating system may be slightly different from the values
listed.
