Switch zoning limitations for Pillar Axiom systems

There are limitations in switch zoning for Lenovo Storage V7000clustered systems and Pillar Axiom systems.

Fabric zoning

The Lenovo Storage V7000 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 Lenovo Storage V7000 system and other hosts.

Host splitting

A single host cannot be connected to both the Lenovo Storage V7000 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 Lenovo Storage V7000 system cannot be mapped to other hosts. Pillar Axiom system LUNs that are not mapped to the Lenovo Storage V7000 system can be mapped to other hosts.
