Managing host groups
A host group is a logical entity of two or more hosts that share access to specific virtual disks on the storage array. You create host groups
using the MD Storage Manager.
All hosts in a host group must have the same host type (operating system). In addition, all hosts in the host group must have special
software, such as clustering software, to manage virtual disk sharing and accessibility.
If a host is part of a cluster, every host in the cluster must be connected to the storage array, and every host in the cluster must be added
to the host group.
