Hub and loop switch restrictions

Fibre channel hubs and loop switches are supported for use with
the StorageWorks NAS Executor E7000. However, there are two
restrictions that an administrator should be aware of.
1. LUNs that were created using the ACS 8.5 firmware are not
visible or manageable in SecurePath 3.1A. This means that
SecurePath cannot be used to administer these LUNs, and
that multiple data paths for a no single point of failure
(NSPOF) configuration will result in multiple instances of
the physical device.
