All MPX200 configurations must follow these connectivity rules:
• When using the MPX200 for iSCSI, MPX200 FC connections must be fabric-attached through
an FC switch.
• Each XP storage system can connect to a maximum of one MPX200 chassis (two blades).
• A maximum of one MPX200 chassis (two blades) can be zoned with up to four XP storage
systems.
• XP and P6000 EVA storage systems can connect to the same MPX200, The total allowable
number of storage systems is four per MPX200 chassis.
• An XP storage system can present LUNs to iSCSI initiators and FC hosts concurrently.
