HP StorageWorks External Storage XP user guide for the XP12000, XP10000, SVS200 (T1706-96009, October 2007)

NOTE:
Do not access any external storage volume that is mapped as an External Storage XP volume from a
host connected directly to the external array. Also, do not access an External Storage XP mapped
external array volume using the external array's functions (for example, local replication). After mapping
an external disk volume as a local array volume, access the mapped external disk volume only via
the local array.
NOTE:
Except on the MSA, a host can directly access external array volumes that are not mapped as local
array volumes.
