Storage system identification

Differences in storage system identification in Business Continuity Manager are described in the
following sections.

Identification on the XP12000/XP10000 disk array

When the storage system is an XP12000/XP10000 disk array, Business Continuity Manager
considers the storage systems themselves to be storage systems and treats the physical DKC serial
numbers assigned to the individual storage systems as the storage systems serial numbers.

Figure 8 (page 49)

shows the storage system serial numbers for XP12000/XP10000 disk arrays.
