CU Images, LVIs, and LUs

CU Images

The Universal Storage Platform V/VM is configured with one control unit image
for each 256 devices (one SSID for each 64 or 256 LDEVs) and supports a

maximum of 510 CU images (255 in each logical disk controller, or LDKC).

The USP V/VM supports the following control unit (CU) emulation types:

3990-6, 3990-6E

2105, 2107

The mainframe data management features of the USP V/VM may have
restrictions on CU image compatibility.

For further information on CU image support, refer to the Mainframe Host
Attachment and Operations Guide
(MK-96RD645), or contact your Hitachi Data
Systems account team.

Logical Volume Images

The Universal Storage Platform V/VM supports the following mainframe LVI
types:

3390-3, -3R, -9, -L, and –M. The 3390-3 and 3390-3R LVIs cannot be

intermixed in the same storage system.

3380-3, -F, -K. The use of 3380 device emulation is restricted to Fujitsu
environments.

The LVI configuration of the USP V/VM storage system depends on the RAID
implementation and physical data drive capacities. The LDEVs are accessed
using a combination of logical disk controller number (00-01), CU number

(00-FE), and device number (00-FF). All control unit images can support an
installed LVI range of 00 to FF.
