Hp Continuous Access Eva San Integration; Offline Data Migration Source-Destination Storage Systems; Hp Continuous Access Eva Heterogeneous San Configuration Rules - HP StorageWorks 4000/6000/8000 - Enterprise Virtual Arrays Reference Manual

NOTE:
The MPX200 data migration has a unique fan-in/fan-out licensing model. Using this particular
license, you can migrate data from multiple arrays to a single array or from a single array to
multiple arrays, three times; that is, this license can enable three different migration tasks using
the same MPX200 chassis at different times.
Table 130 describes the supported source and destination storage systems when using the MPX200
offline data migration feature. See the HP StorageWorks MPX200 Multifunction Router User Guide
for information about configuring the MPX200 for offline data migration.

All HP MSA (Fibre Channel) and EVA models
Third-party array models:
EMC CLARiiON AX series, CX Series
Hitachi Data Systems AMS Family, WMS Family
IBM DS4000 series, DS5000 series
For current data migration storage system support, see the SPOCK website at

HP Continuous Access EVA SAN integration

HP Continuous Access EVA is supported in a heterogeneous SAN, provided that you follow the rules
described in Table
Table 131 HP Continuous Access EVA heterogeneous SAN configuration rules
Rule
nl
number
1 HP strongly recommends that all HP Continuous Access EVA deployments implement level 4 NSPOF
SANs using two or more separate fabrics. See
HP Continuous Access EVA supports a subset of operating systems listed in this guide, which limits
the types of servers that can reside in the HP Continuous Access EVA management zone. For more
information, see the HP StorageWorks Enterprise Virtual Array compatibility reference matrix at
http://h18006.www1.hp.com/products/storage/software/conaccesseva/index.html.
2 The maximum number of switches and switch hops supported in a fabric with HP Continuous Access
EVA is based on the limits for B-series, C-series, and M-series fabrics. All active and standby links
must conform to the switch hop limits, including the host-to-local storage link, the local storage-to-
remote storage link, and the local host-to-remote storage link. For more information, see the HP
Continuous Access EVA planning guide and the switch and fabric rules. For switch and fabric
rules, see:
