A parity group is a mode of disk operation and configuration in which
multiple disks work together to provide redundancy. Synonymous with
"array group."
Dividing a specific physical disk into two or more areas as if there are two
or more physical disks.
Paths are created by associating a port, a target, and a LUN ID with one or
more LDEVs.
Power control interface or peripheral component interconnect.
A physical connection that allows data to pass between a host and the disk
array. The number of ports on an XP disk array depends on the number of
supported I/O slots and the number of ports available per I/O adapter. The

CL1 is the group, and A is the port letter.
