HP XP P9500 Storage - Manual (Page 74)

•
Characteristic1(device information). LUN assigned to the path with the highest priority is
displayed.
•
Path Mode and Load Balance Mode. Load Balance Mode is set to Disable by default. Three
Path Mode settings are available:
1.
Normal Round-robin (For Multi Path)
2. Extended Round-robin (For Multi Path)
3. Disable (For Single Path and ALUA)
By default, Load Balance Mode is set to Disable for the generic Ext Stor profile. As a result,
Ext Stor uses Single Mode (Active/Passive). If the attached external storage supports Multi
pathing (Active/Active), the Load Balance Mode setting must be changed to Extended
Round-robin or Normal Round-robin.
The Load Balance Mode can be changed in the Add External Volumes window of Remote Web
Console.
NOTE: If you need a profile that models your specific storage system, please contact the HP
Technical Support. HP will gather the required information and may provide the requested profile
in a microcode update. Upgrading to the new microcode will allow the External Storage to display
the vendor name, product name, serial number, and path mode of the external volumes.
