When devices
in a storage system are accessed through
a general purpose SAN, a mechanism is needed to ensure that the devices
are accessed only by Lenovo Storage V7000.
Use one of the following
techniques to control the access to the
storage systems and
devices:
- Switch zoning
- LUN-masking capability of the storage systems
Logical units (LUs) or managed disks (MDisks)
should
be made accessible to all ports on all the Lenovo Storage V7000 nodes
for a clustered system.
Attention: Lenovo Storage V7000 does
not take any action to prevent two systems from accessing the same
MDisks. If two systems are configured so that they can detect the
same MDisks, data corruption is likely to occur.
