Host modes and host mode options

The VSP G1000, VSP G1500, and VSP F1500 storage systems connect
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 separate iSCSI or Fibre Channel or ports, or through a
switch to a single iSCSI or Fibre Channel port, a host group is created for the
Solaris hosts and another host group is created for the Windows hosts. The
appropriate host mode and host mode options are assigned to each host
group. The host modes and host mode options enhance compatibility with
supported platforms and environments.
The host groups, host modes, and host mode options are configured by using
Device Manager - Storage Navigator. For more information about host
groups, host modes, and host mode options, see the System Administrator
Guide.

Device Manager - Storage Navigator program

The Device Manager - Storage Navigator is the GUI that accesses the
features in the microcode.
The GUI is also used to set up and monitor the storage system. It can be
installed on a PC, laptop, or workstation. It communicates via a LAN to the
SVP in the storage system. The SVP obtains storage system configuration and
status information and sends user-initiated commands to the storage system.
The Device Manager - Storage Navigator displays detailed storage system
information and allows users to configure and perform storage operations on
the system.
Device Manager - Storage Navigator is a Java
on any machine that supports a Java Virtual Machine (JVM). A PC hosting the
Device Manager - Storage Navigator software is called a remote console.
Each time a remote console accesses and logs on to the SVP, the Device
Manager - Storage Navigator applet is downloaded from the SVP to the
remote console. The following figure shows the remote console and SVP
configuration for Device Manager - Storage Navigator.
