Errors in a path to the external array

Figure 63 (page 123)

shows an example of when an error occurs in a path between the local array

and an external array. In

Figure 63 (page 123)

, an error occurs in the path between the local array

and external array 1; however, the path between the local array and external array 2 is normal.

The situation in

Figure 63 (page 123)

is as follows:

Clients cannot access volumes in external array 1, but can access volumes in external array 2.

The local array recognizes that the status of all file systems and volumes in external array 1
are blocked.
