CAUTION: The correct host mode must be set for all new installations (newly connected ports)
to Windows hosts. Do not select a mode other than 2C or 0C. Changing a host mode after the
host is connected is disruptive and requires a server reboot.
When a new host group is added, additional host group modes (options) can be configured. The
storage administrator must verify if an additional host group mode is required for the host group.
The following host group modes (options) are available for Windows:
