Protecting logical devices from RAID Manager XP commands

Defining remote command devices
A remote command device is a device in the array to which a command device in the external array is
mapped.
As you send RAID Manager XP commands to the remote command device, these RAID Manager XP
commands are sent to the external array’s command device to perform RAID Manager XP operations on
the external array.
You can map a command device as a remote command device when one of the following arrays is
connected as an external array:
•
XP12000 Disk Array
•
XP10000 Disk Array
•
HP 200 Storage Virtualization System
•
XP1024/XP128 Disk Array
•
TagmaStore Universal Storage Platform subsystem
•
TagmaStore Network Storage Controller subsystem
•
TagmaStore Adaptable Modular Storage subsystem
•
TagmaStore Workgroup Modular Storage subsystem
•
Lightning 9900V series subsystem
•
Thunder 9500V series subsystem
