Version: 2.1 Description The HP StorageWorks Enterprise Virtual Array (EVA) family of Fibre Channel (FC) storage systems is supported for integrated iSCSI connectivity using the MPX200 Multifunction Router. The MPX200 hardware is integrated with up to four EVA storage systems and HP StorageWorks Command View EVA to deliver multiprotocol capabilities. This provides both iSCSI and FC-attached servers access to block storage through an FC and Ethernet IP network simultaneously.

User-defined bandwidth for a source array cannot be set greater than 400 MB/s with GUI The source array bandwidth setting may be user-defined up to 1600 MB/s. However, the MPX200 manager for Data Migration Services GUI 3.0.1 does not allow a bandwidth greater than 400 MB/s. This will be corrected in a later release. Use the MPX200 CLI migration command set array to set the source array bandwidth greater than 400 MB/s. iSCSI notes iSCSI Initiators may not reconnect following a blade reboot.
