The IBM® Enterprise Storage Server® (ESS)
can be shared between a host and a SAN Volume Controller.
The following restrictions apply when you share the IBM ESS between a host and a
SAN Volume Controller:
- If an IBM ESS port is in
the same zone as a SAN Volume Controller port,
that same IBM ESS port should
not be in the same zone as another host.
- A single host can have both IBM ESS
direct-attached and SAN Volume Controller virtualized
disks configured to it.
- If a LUN is managed by the SAN Volume Controller,
it cannot be mapped to another host.
