HP StorageWorks 1510i Modular Smart Array - Manual (Page 30)

Sample configuration used in this document
Illustrations in this document demonstrate the process of configuring a dual-controller MSA1510i storage
system, with multiple targets being accessed by multiple initiators. Although each real-world environment
and the associated configuration steps will differ from this example, fundamental principles of the
configuration steps are the same for all installations. Your configuration may be more or less complex, but
the configuration steps will be similar to the steps outlined in this document.
The following diagrams illustrate the sample configuration used throughout this document:
