HP MPX200 Multifunction Router - Manual (Page 43)

If NPIV is not supported or not enabled and if the FC switch port cannot be configured to support
loop mode, configure MPX200 ports in point-to-point only mode. In point-to-point only configuration
of MPX200 FC ports, you can perform only offline migration. NPIV and enabling NPIV support
are not options.
Table 9 (page 43) lists the behavior of MPX200 FC ports as determined by the configuration of
various FC switch ports, where:
•
The Connect and Connect (loop mode) settings are appropriate for online data migration.
•
The Connect (offline migration only) setting is appropriate for offline data migration.
•
The No connect setting indicates that the link does not come up unless you change the MPX200
FC port or switch port setting.

Presenting LUNs to the MPX200
Data migration requires that LUNs from both the source and destination storage arrays be presented
to the MPX200 from either FC arrays or iSCSI arrays.
When presenting LUNs to the MPX200 FC ports, you must not present LUNs from different arrays
using the same World Wide Unique LUN Name. The MPX200 uses the WWULN of a presented
LUN to determine the number of paths available to a specific array entry. Adding LUNs from
different arrays using the same WWULN as an existing presented LUN to the MPX200 prevents
the MPX200 from creating a new array entry.
The following example shows typical MPX200 LUN information:
