IPv6
IPv4
AV: Available for communicating with different platforms.
N/A: Not Applicable (Windows LH does not support IPv4 mapped IPv6).
Minimum platform versions for RAID Manager/IPv6 support:
•
HP-UX: HP-UX 11.23 (PA/IA) or later
• Solaris: Solaris 8/Sparc or later, Solaris 10/x86/64 or later
•
AIX: AIX 5.1 or later
• Windows: Windows 2008(LH), Windows 2003 + IPv6 Install
•
Linux: Linux Kernel 2.4 (RH8.0) or later
•
Tru64: Tru64 v5.1A or later. Note that v5.1A does not support the getaddrinfo() function, so this must be specified
by IP address directly.
• OpenVMS: OpenVMS 8.3 or later
Requirements and restrictions for z/Linux
In the following example, z/Linux defines the Open Volumes that are connected to FCP as /dev/sd*.
Also, the mainframe volumes (3390-xx) that are connected to FICON are defined as /dev/dasd*.
Figure 1 Example of a RAID Manager configuration on z/Linux
The restrictions for using RAID Manager with z/Linux are:
•
Command device. RAID Manager uses a SCSI Path-through driver to access the command
device. As such, the command device must be connected through FCP adaptors.
•
Open Volumes via FCP. You can control the Business Copy and Continuous Access Synchronous
pair operations without any restrictions.
•
Mainframe (3390-9A) Volumes via FICON. You cannot control the volumes (3390-9A) that
are directly connected to FICON for Business Copy pair operations. Also, mainframe volumes
must be mapped to a CHF port to address target volumes using a command device, as shown
in
Figure 1 (page 13) . The mainframe volume does not have to be connected to an FCP
adaptor.
