There are limitations in switch zoning for Lenovo Storage V7000clustered systems and IBM® XIV® Storage System systems.
To avoid a single point of failure, the Lenovo Storage V7000 switch zone must include at least one target port from each IBM XIV Storage System controller.
Target ports can be shared between the Lenovo Storage V7000 system and other hosts.
To avoid the possibility of an interaction between multipathing drivers, a single host cannot be connected to both the Lenovo Storage V7000 system and the IBM XIV Storage System system.
IBM XIV Storage System system LUNs that are mapped to the Lenovo Storage V7000 system cannot be mapped to other hosts. IBM XIV Storage System system LUNs that are not mapped to the Lenovo Storage V7000 system can be mapped to other hosts.
