Connecting HP 200 Storage Virtualization System as external
storage
When connecting an HP 200 Storage Virtualization System (SVS200) as the external array, you must
set the SVS200 port to a host group for Windows hosts (host mode 0C: Windows or host mode 2C:
Windows Extension).
Also, the SVS200 port attribute must be “target” (for an External Storage XP connection) or “RCU
target port” (for a Continuous Access XP connection).
NOTE:
If you are using microcode that does not support the SVS200, the SVS200 is recognized as an XP12000
Disk Array. To recognize the connected external array as the SVS200, use the microcode version that
supports the SVS200 (which is microcode version 50-07-0X-XX/XX or higher). If you used an earlier
microcode version that does not support the SVS200 to map the SVS200 volumes, delete the mapping
setting, and then change the microcode version to the one that supports the SVS200.
