HP StorageWorks 4000/6000/8000 - Enterprise Virtual Arrays, Reference Manual

Page: 273 / 456

• Minimum of one HP Command View EVA server (EVA) or one MSA ACI/ASU (MSA)
• Minimum of one host
• Minimum of two HBAs per host or one dual-channel HBA per host
NOTE:
Long-distance asynchronous remote mirroring requires an additional domain at the other site and
sufficient IP-based bandwidth between sites. See
Table 137 for network requirements for asynchronous
replication.
For more information, see Level 4: multiple fabrics and device paths (NSPOF) on page 56.
Fabric rules
HP SVSP is supported in SAN fabrics with B-series or C-series switches. For Fibre Channel switch
support, see “
B-series switches and fabric rules ” on page 93 and

NOTE:
HP SVSP only supports Fibre Channel to Fibre Channel switching when using multiprotocol routers,
Multiprotocol Services Modules, and Multiservice Modules. Other interfaces, such as IP, are not
supported as an SVSP transport.
