HP StorageWorks XP Remote Web Console Software - Manual (Page 48)

• Volume Security
You must set the IO Suppression mode to Disable to use the mapped external LU for Volume Security
operations.
• Volume Retention Manager
You must set the IO Suppression mode to Disable to use the mapped external LU for Volume Reten-
tion Manager operations.
• Data Retention Utility
• You must set the IO Suppression mode to Disable to use the mapped external LU for Data Re-
tention Utility operations.
• If you previously mapped the external LU and set the VMA of Data Retention Utility in that
volume, the previous VMA setting is overwritten when you map the LU again. However, if Data
Retention Utility is not installed when you remap the LU, you cannot map the LU with the VMA
setting.
• SNMP
Information about the mapped external LU and external port is displayed.
• Configuration File Loader
• You can set the path definition for external LUs (add, delete, or change paths).
• You can set the command devices on external LUs (add or delete the setting).
• CHIP mode, host group, and WWN settings for external ports are not supported. When an
external LU is mapped through that external port, the topology setting is not available.
NOTE:
Some mainframe products might be marketed under different HP names and are not supported at
this time. Contact your HP account support representative for the latest support matrix.
Using external LUs for XP Auto LUN operations
Figure 14 shows an example of using an external LU for XP Auto LUN operations. The mapped external
LU is set as the source volume, and the local array internal LDEV is set as the target volume. Existing
data in the external LU is (in effect) manually migrated to the internal LDEV on the local array using
XP Auto LUN. For more information, see the HP StorageWorks XP LUN Configuration and Security
Manager user guide: HP XP12000 Disk Array, HP XP10000 Disk Array, HP 200 Storage Virtualization
System.
