For configurations that include both single-path and multipath operating systems, single-path operating systems are supported
for single-path attachment on either (but not both) multipath mpx100s.
An EVA storage system configuration is considered to have two redundant HSV controllers. The
following list details the limitations of an EVA storage system by failover mode configuration:
• In a fabric connect configuration, a maximum of two mpx100's/100b's can be zoned with one
EVA storage system.
• In a fabric connect configuration, a maximum of one EVA storage system can be zoned with a
maximum of two mpx100's/100b's.
• In a direct connect configuration, a maximum of two mpx100's/100b's are supported to one EVA
storage system.
