•
Configure a logical path between LDKC00 of the P9500 system and the XP24000/XP20000
Disk Array.
◦
More than one XP24000/XP20000 Disk Array can be connected to LDKC00 of P9500.
◦
LDKC01 cannot be used.
You can use the configuration instructions in this guide to set up the system. See
for information.
