28 HP StorageWorks Disk Arrays XP128/XP1024 Owner’s Guide
Figure 2. The XP128 connections
1. The management station connects to the XP128 by means of a public
LAN connection. The XP128 has an Ethernet connection for this
purpose.
2. The host server uses a Fibre Channel, FICON, iSCSI, or ESCON
connection.
The hardware requirements for your Device Manager server, such as the
required processor speed, storage capacity, and memory, will vary
depending on the optional software that you use and the number of disk
array frames you have connected to the system.
To ensure data security, neither edition of HP Command View software
(CVXP or CVXP AE) has access to any user data stored on the disk array.
There is no single point of failure in the disk array. It is designed with
redundant logic assemblies, disk drives and power supplies, all of which
can be removed or replaced without interrupting access to your data.
Caution Only your HP service representative can remove or replace hardware.
