Figure 9

shows an example of writing new data in the mapped external LU from the host connected

to the local array.

Use the XP External Storage GUI to map the LU in the external array as an internal LDEV of the
local array.

Set the IO Suppression mode to Disable.
You can select the mapped volume's emulation type as required. If you select an emulation
type for an open-system (such as OPEN-V), go to step 2. If you select an emulation type for
a mainframe system (such as 3390-3), go to step 3
