    The MPX200 supports the following functions: iSCSI-FCoE, FCIP, Data Migration. For simultaneous operation, you can configure the MPX200 chassis with a single blade or dual blades to run up to two functions per blade in the combinations shown in Table 3 (page 20).
  • Page 21: Iscsi/Fcoe Operation

    The MPX200 presents one iSCSI target for each VPG (a total of four). Each initiator, therefore, discovers four times the number of FC targets. HP recommends that you use iSNS to present to the initiator only the required iSCSI targets.

    This chapter describes how to rack mount the MPX200. WARNING! Mount the MPX200 in the rack so that the weight is evenly distributed. An unevenly loaded rack can become unstable, possibly resulting in equipment damage or personal injury. This product is supplied with a 3 wire cable and plug for the user's safety. Use this power cable in conjunction with a properly grounded outlet to avoid electrical shock.
  • Page 27: Rack Mounting The Mpx200

    Use a crosshead screwdriver to perform the rack mount procedure. To rack mount the MPX200: Attach the two chassis rails to the MPX200 chassis using three 10-32 x 1/4 in. screws for each rail. Make sure that the end with the flange is facing the rear of the chassis (Figure 12 (page 27)).
  • Page 28 3. Washer Install the chassis in the rack: Starting from the back of the rack, slide the MPX200 chassis and rail assembly into the rack rails. Fasten the chassis to the rack using two 10-32 x 3/8 in. screws in the middle hole on...
  • Page 29 Route the power cord: Starting from the front of the rack, connect the power cord to the MPX200. For the left blade, route the cord by following the gap between the chassis and the chassis rail (see Figure 16 (page 29)).
  • Page 30 Remove the four 10-32 x 3/8 in. screws that secure the rack rails to the front of the rack. Position the bezel support plate in front of the MPX200 chassis, with the arrows pointing Replace the four 10-32 x 3/8 in. screws, two on each side of the bezel support plate.
  • Page 31: Managing Mpx200 Iscsi Using Hp P6000 Command View

    Because the MPX200 can be a fabric-connected device, it is important to understand the zoning requirements. Open zoning When using an open zone configuration, each FC port on each MPX200 must be connected to a separate fabric (see “Open zone configuration” (page 31)).
  • Page 32: Fibre Channel Switch-Based Zoning

    Fibre Channel switch-based zoning Each FC port on the MPX200 uses NPIV to create a total of four unique, virtual WWNNs per physical FC port. To create proper zoning, you must understand the use of VPGs. A VPG consists of a WWNN from each of the four physical FC ports. This allows presentation for up to 1,024 LUNs from a single P6000 EVA or XP array.
  • Page 33 After the discovery is complete, the MPX200s appear in the iSCSI Devices folder as iSCSI Controller 01 and iSCSI Controller 02. The four iSCSI MPX200 hosts appear in the Hosts folder (see Figure 21 (page 33)). The ports associated with each host consist of the VPGs from each blade.
  • Page 34: Setting Up The Iscsi Ip Ports

    Each iSCSI IP port must have an IP address—IPv4, IPv6, or both. Set the IP address on the IP Ports tab on the iSCSI Controller Properties page (see Figure 23 (page 35)). NOTE: A target portal is created for each IP address that you set. Managing MPX200 iSCSI using HP P6000 Command View...

  • Page 42: Lun Provisioning

    LUN provisioning LUN masking for MPX200 connectivity to a 3PAR array is accomplished by executing the following procedure in which the MPX200 is treated as if it were a Windows FC host to the 3PAR array. NOTE: To properly set up LUN masking, you must create a host that includes the WWNs from a single VPG.
  • Page 43 Figure 36 The show vpgroups command Using the InForm Management Console, create a host and add only WWNs that belong to the same VPG. There can be up to four hosts that represent the MPX200. NOTE: Figure 37 (page 43) shows an example with eight connections from the MPX200 to the array.
