• A maximum two MPX100s per storage system are supported.
• In a single MPX100 configuration, if both MPX100 FC ports are used each port must be connected
to one storage system controller.
• In a dual MPX100 configuration, at least one FC port from each MPX100 must be connected to
one storage system controller.
• The Host Port Configuration must be set to Direct Connect using the OCP.
• HP Continuous Access EVA cannot be used with direct connect configurations.
• EVAs cannot be directly connected to each other to create HP Continuous Access EVA configuration.
However, hosts can be direct connected to the EVA in a HP Continuous Access configuration. At
least one port from each array in an HP Continuous Access EVA configuration must be connected
to a Fabric connection for remote array connectivity.

Gathering information
The following items should be available when installing and configuring an Enterprise Virtual Array.
They provide information necessary to set up the storage system successfully.

the storage system)

need the following information for each host:
• The LAN name of the host
• A list of World Wide Names of the FC adapters, also called host bus adapters, through which
the host will connect to the fabric that provides access to the storage system, or to the storage
system directly if using direct connect.
• Operating system type
