Switch support
This release supports the Fibre Channel (FC) switches and firmware versions listed in the HP StorageWorks
SAN design reference guide, which you can download from the HP StorageWorks web site:
http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/storageworks/san/documentation.html
NOTE:

upgrade all switches in the SAN.

EVA configuration best practices
Although the EVA4000/6000/8000 is designed to work in a wide range of configurations, some of the

configuration options include:
•Number of disk groups
•Type of disk group
•Type and number of disks in a disk group
•Vraid levels (0, 1, and 5)
•Disk failure protection level (none, single, and double)
•Cache settings
For more information on the configuration options, see the HP StorageWorks Enterprise Virtual Array
