WWN: WWN identifying the external array's port. This port is connected to the local
array port selected in the Port tree.

LUN: External array's LU number.

Characteristic: External LU's identification number.

Group: External LU group number and reference number assigned to each LU in the
external LU group. XP External Storage automatically assigns the reference numbers to
LUs in the group when the external LUs are mapped. This is displayed in the format of
“external LU group number - reference number of volume in the group”.

Status: Status of the path configured by the port of the local array and the port of the
external array identified by the WWN.

Normal: Path is normal.

Unknown: Path status is unknown.

Blockade: Path is blocked.

External device setting changed: External array's setting changed. For example, the
path definition was deleted or the external array itself was replaced by another
device.

LDEV size reduced: External array's volume capacity changed (volume capacity was
reduced).

Not ready: External array replied NOTREADY.

Illegal request: External array replied ILLEGALREQUEST.

Command aborted: External array replied ABORTEDCOMMAND.

Busy: External array is in BUSY status.

LDEV reserved: External array is in Reserve status.

Response error: External array is in blocked status caused by an abnormal reply
(Response).

Initiator port: External array's port attribute changed to the initiator port.

Unknown port: External array's port attribute is unknown.

Cannot detect port: Path was removed or external array's port could not be found.

Internal error: Program error occurred, or there is a logical contradiction.

Timeout: Processing was retried because an abnormal reply (Response) was returned;
however, processing was stopped by a timeout.

Standby: External array's port is standing by. The port status is normal, but cannot
receive I/O.

Target error: Port failures, such as controller blockade, are detected on the external
array side.

Checking: Process of checking the paths' defined configuration information is in
progress.

Disconnect: Connection to the external array or external LU was intentionally stopped
using the Disconnect Subsystem or Disconnect Volume command.

Unavailable: External array replied Unavailable. The external array demands to
change the connected port. Once the status becomes Unavailable, the primary path
changes to the alternate path that is in the Standby status. When the primary path
changes, the status of the path becomes Normal.

Backoff: External array replied Backoff. The path status is waiting for recovery because
a temporary error occurred in the external array's volume. Even if the primary path's
