check box to use the Command and Control LUN.
Note:
The CCL (Command and Control LUN) is not used in most environments. This option is
recommended for host access groups that contain an HP-UX host. It can also be used if hosts that
are not assigned to any host access group exist in the SAN. The CCL is accessible to hosts only
through LUN 0.
Caution:
If you are not sure if you should use CCL, contact Quantum Customer Support before
you enable this option.
