One primary storage system can be associated with up to 64 secondary storage systems. Up to
eight logical paths can be configured between one primary storage system and one secondary
storage system. Therefore, one primary storage system can have up to 512 logical paths to
secondary storage systems.
To associate the primary and secondary storage systems and then configure logical paths between
the two storage systems, both the primary storage system administrator and the secondary storage
system administrator must perform this operation:
1.
Make sure the remote copy connections and ports are properly configured. Also, get the serial
number of the remote storage system.
NOTE:
To get the serial number of the remote storage system, ask the administrator of the
remote storage system. The serial number will be displayed in the Remote Web Console main
window when the Remote Web Console user logs into the storage system.
2.
Ensure that the Remote Web Console main window is in Modify mode.
For detailed information about how to do this, see the HP StorageWorks XP24000/XP20000
Remote Web Console User's Guide.

•
The path group ID
The path group ID is within the range of 1-FF (hexadecimal). Up to 64 path group IDs
can be registered per storage system.

cannot be changed.
