load balancing among processors, there is no reason not to use both ports in the I/O path of one
processor or to use both ports in the I/O path of a processor.

Port numbering is as follows: Cluster 1 uses CL1-* and CL3-*, while Cluster 2 uses CL2-* and CL4-*,
where * is an alphabetical character designation of the port such as A, B, C, and so on. Ports A, for
example, CL1-A and CL3-A, share the same processor for I/O purposes.
Host groups
Begin by grouping server hosts into host groups. For example, if HP-UX
®
and Windows hosts are
connected to the disk array, you must create a separate host group for each host type. When this is done,
register the hosts in their corresponding host groups. After hosts are classified into host groups, associate
the host groups with LUs.
In
, the host group hpux01 is associated with six LUs. LU paths are defined between the three hosts
in the hpux01 group (WWN_1, WWN_2, WWN_3) and the six logical units LUN00-LUN05.
