Fibre channel storage and switch recommendations
HP recommends the HP storage solution portfolio of products, which includes:
• 3PAR StoreServ
• P6000 EVA
• P9000 XP
You must provide connectivity to a compatible Fibre Channel SAN array. Customer-supplied Fibre
Channel switches to an external SAN must support boot from SAN and NPIV functionality.
