Setting The Host Mode And Host Group Mode For The Disk Array Ports - HP XP20000/XP24000 Configuration Manual

Setting the host mode and host group mode for the disk array ports

After the disk array is installed, you must set the host mode for each disk array port to match the host
OS. Set the host mode using LUN Manager in XP Remote Web Console (shown), XP Command View,
or XP Command View Advanced Edition Software. If these are not available, the HP service
representative can set the host mode using the SVP. The host mode setting for Novell Netware is 0A.
CAUTION:
The correct host mode must be set for all new installations (newly connected ports) to Novell Netware hosts.
Do not select a mode other than 0A for Novell Netware. The host modes must be set for certain middleware
environments (for example, Novell High Availability Server, NHAS, System Fault Tolerance, SFT III).
Changing a host mode after the host has been connected is disruptive and requires the server to be rebooted.
When a new host group is added, additional host group modes (host mode options) may be configured.
The storage administrator must verify if an additional host group mode is required for the host group.
