Figure 10 Modify target attributes menu
Types of target systems can be added to or removed from the logical server’s target attributes.
Selecting a server from the Target Attributes Available to Add table and clicking the Add button
adds that type of server with its associated resources to the list of most suitable targets for the
logical server. Selecting a type of server from the Target Attributes Available to Remove table and
clicking the Remove button removes that type and causes the specified type of server to no longer
be considered most suitable.

Defining storage
You create a storage pool entry or a storage entry associated with a cross-technology logical server
in the same way as you do for physical to physical or virtual to virtual logical servers, using
Modify→Logical Server Storage Pools… or Create→Logical Server….
On the Create→Logical Server… storage screen, select a storage type of SAN Storage Entry for
both servers with Virtual Connect logical servers and virtual machine logical servers.
IMPORTANT: You can use cross-technology logical servers only if your storage is SAN-based.
Virtual machine logical servers can be moved to physical systems if the VM storage uses RDM.
Data store-based VMs cannot be moved across technologies.
In this release, SAN Catalog Storage Entries and SAN Pre-populated Catalog Storage Entries are
supported on servers with Virtual Connect logical servers only. Catalog storage pool entries cannot
be used with cross-technology logical servers that may be activated on an ESX VM Host.
To allow flexibility and movement between underlying technology types, storage must be presented
to both the WWNs tied to the Virtual Connect server profile as well as to any ESX VM Hosts that
