Sharing an IBM DS5000, IBM DS4000, or IBM DS3000 systems between a host and IBM Spectrum Virtualize
You can share an IBM® DS5000™, IBM DS4000®, or IBM DS3000 system between a host and a IBM Spectrum Virtualize™ clustered system.
The IBM
DS5000, IBM
DS4000, and IBM DS3000 function known as
partitioning must be used to separate groups of logical units that are directly
attached to hosts or groups of hosts from the logical units that are accessed by the IBM Spectrum Virtualize system.
Note: The IBM Spectrum Virtualize partition must either contain all the
host ports of the IBM Spectrum Virtualize system that are
connected to the SAN or are zoned to have access to the storage system ports. For example,
configure so that each IBM Spectrum Virtualize host bus
adapter (HBA) port on IBM Spectrum Virtualize are able to
see at least one port on storage system A and one port on storage system B.
