Host modes and host mode options
The XP7 supports connection of multiple server hosts of different platforms to each of its ports.
When your system is configured, the hosts connected to each port are grouped by host group or
by target. For example, if Solaris and Windows hosts are connected to a fibre port, a host group
is created for the Solaris hosts, another host group is created for the Windows hosts, and the
appropriate host mode and host mode options are assigned to each host group. The host modes
and host mode options provide enhanced compatibility with supported platforms and environments.
The host groups, host modes, and host mode options are configured using the LUN Manager
software on Remote Web Console. For further information on host groups, host modes, and host
mode options, see the HP XP7 Provisioning for Open Systems User Guide.

fibre-channel interface
