1-2 XP12000/XP10000 Disk Array subsystem
The XP12000/XP10000 Disk Array subsystem offers the following consolidated features to implement more
efficient storage management systems in a large-scale storage area network (SAN) environment:
• Improved capacity and scalability. The XP12000/XP10000 Disk Array subsystem supports up to 16,384
logical device (LDEV) addresses per subsystem, and can provide up to 138 TB of storage capacity.
• Continuous data availability. The XP12000/XP10000 Disk Array subsystem employs the Hierarchical Star
Network (Hi-Star™) architecture to improve total performance of internal data transfer. Hi-Star™
architecture uses high-speed crossbar switches among processors on channel adapter boards, processors
on disk adapter boards, and cache memory. The XP12000/XP10000 Disk Array subsystem also provides
up to 128 fibre-channel interface paths or 32 serial-interface paths, and enables simultaneous data transfer
through each path.
• Connectivity for SAN infrastructure. The XP12000/XP10000 Disk Array subsystem can be configured for
all-mainframe, all-open, or multiplatform operations. The XP12000/XP10000 Disk Array supports fibre-
channel ports and provides a variety of feature options to meet SAN requirements.
