Switch zoning limitations for Pillar Axiom systems
Switch zoning has limitations for Storwize® V3700 clustered systems and Pillar Axiom systems.
Fabric zoning
The Storwize V3700 switch zone must include at least one target port from each Pillar Axiom controller to avoid a single point of failure.
Target port sharing
Target ports can be shared between the Storwize V3700 system and other hosts.
Host splitting
A single host cannot be connected to both the Storwize V3700 system and the Pillar Axiom system to avoid the possibility of an interaction between multipathing drivers.
Controller splitting
Pillar Axiom system LUNs that are mapped to the Storwize V3700 system cannot be mapped to other hosts. Pillar Axiom system LUNs that are not mapped to the Storwize V3700 system can be mapped to other hosts.
