Configuring HP StorageWorks MA and EMA systems
You can configure HP StorageWorks Modular Array (MA) and Enterprise Modular Array (EMA) systems to attach to the system.
The HP MA and EMA systems use an HSG80 controller.
- HP MA and EMA definitions
The definitions of some storage-related terminology differ between IBM® and HP. - Configuring HP MA and EMA systems
You can configure the HP MA and EMA systems to provide functions that are compatible with the system. - Supported models of HP MA and EMA systems
The system supports models of the HP MA and EMA systems. - Supported firmware levels for HP MA and EMA systems
The HP MA and EMA systems must use a firmware level that is supported by the system. - Concurrent maintenance on HP MA and EMA systems
Concurrent maintenance is the capability to complete I/O operations to an HP MA or EMA system while simultaneously completing maintenance operations on it. - Configuration interface for HP MA and EMA systems
The Command Console configuration and service utility is the configuration interface for the HP MA and EMA systems. - Sharing the HP MA or EMA between a host and the system
Restrictions apply when HP MA and EMA storage systems are shared between a host and the system. - Switch zoning limitations for HP MA and EMA systems
Limitations apply to switch zoning for the system and the HP MA and EMA systems. - Quorum disks on HP MA and EMA systems
Managed disks (MDisks) that are presented by the HP MA or EMA are chosen by the system as quorum disks. - Advanced functions for HP MA and EMA
Some advanced functions of the HP MA and EMA are not supported by the system. - Advanced system functions
Volumes that are created from managed disks (MDisks) that are presented by an HSG80 controller can be used in FlashCopy® mappings, Metro Mirror relationships, and Global Mirror relationships. - LU creation and deletion on the HP MA and EMA
Ensure that you are familiar with the HSG80 controller container types for logical unit (LU) configuration. - Configuring settings for the HP MA and EMA
The HP StorageWorks configuration interface provides configuration settings and options that are supported with the system.
