Switch zoning limitations for Pillar Axiom systems

Switch zoning has limitations for the system and Pillar Axiom systems.

Fabric zoning

The system's switch zone must include at least one target port from each Pillar Axiom controller to avoid a single point of failure.

Target port sharing

Target ports can be shared between the system and other hosts.

Host splitting

A single host cannot be connected to both the system and the Pillar Axiom system to avoid the possibility of an interaction between multipathing drivers.

Controller splitting

Pillar Axiom system LUNs that are mapped to the system cannot be mapped to other hosts. Pillar Axiom system LUNs that are not mapped to the system can be mapped to other hosts.
