Controlling access to storage systems and devices

When devices are accessible through a general purpose SAN, a mechanism is needed to ensure that the devices are accessed only by the storage system.

Use one of the following techniques to control the access to the storage systems and devices:

Logical units (LUs) or managed disks (MDisks) should be made accessible to all ports on all the nodes for a clustered system.

Attention: Two systems are not prevented from accessing the same MDisks. However, if two systems are configured so that they can detect the same MDisks, data corruption is likely to occur.
