2 TE: Please refer to for details on Product Support Lifecycle information. HP Serviceguard Solutions Storage Support Matrix TE: The tables on the following pages contain information about currently supported storage for HP Serviceguard Solutions, including HP Serviceguard, HP Serviceguard Extension for Oracle RC (SGeRC), and the HP Serviceguard Storage Management Suites (SG SMS). The purpose of these tables is to list each storage device that is supported with the Serviceguard, SGeRC, and SG SMS products and what volume managers are supported for package application data. It also lists any known restrictions or requirements that exist for the device. It does not provide detailed product or configuration information. This document is updated regularly. The most recent version can be found at Supported Volume Managers Please refer to the following table to determine which Volume Managers are supported on given HP-UX and Serviceguard or SGeRC revisions.

The term cluster lock disk refers to both types of cluster locks unless otherwise noted. Some of the storage devices listed are no longer available from HP, however existing configurations with those devices are still supported.

However, if the External Storage device has only one ctive Path to the XP array, it must not be used as a cluster lock disk, and should not be used for Serviceguard package application data unless the data is mirrored to the XP array s internal storage, or mirrored to another External Storage device connected to the XP array via a separate Fibre Channel connection. This is required to eliminate the Single Point of Failure of the single path to the device. B = Supported with XP Thin Provisioning.,B,B 6

9 TES: = Requires SVSP version 2.0 or later B = Refer to the SVSP Streams documentation for DPM and VSM firmware versions required for the HP-UX version being used. Refer to the SVSP Streams documentation for the Command View and SecurePath versions required for the HP-UX version being used C = Only supported with SVSP-supported external storage (available on SPOCK) dditional notes for the information in the tables above: Other disks or arrays (not listed in these tables) that are supported for HP-UX may be used on non-shared buses. Oracle RC data is generally required to be stored in RW volumes on Shared (S) volume groups or Veritas Cluster Volume Manager () disk groups, or can be stored on Cluster File Systems (CFS). To determine if a storage device is supported with the Serviceguard Storage Management Suites, check if the device is supported for VERITS versions 4.1, 5.0, or 5.1 and, and CFS. It is supported to mix Fibre Channel, SS or SCSI mass storage devices within the same Serviceguard cluster. ll storage devices are supported as Serviceguard cluster lock disks, using -based cluster lock or cluster lock LUN unless otherwise noted. It is important to understand what is meant here when this document refers to a Shared Bus. Shared Bus is any bus (SCSI, SS, or Fibre Channel) connected to more than a single node. This is also known as having Multiple Initiators. Generally, the information listed in this document is specifically regarding the use of the device as a shared data disk with Serviceguard, Serviceguard Extension for RC (SGeRC, formerly Serviceguard OPS Edition) or the Serviceguard Storage Management Suites (SG SMS). Unless otherwise noted, the information here does not apply to the use of any device for purposes other than as a shared data disk for Serviceguard, SGeRC, and SG SMS. nother important restriction with Serviceguard and SGeRC is that shared SCSI buses should not contain any non-disk devices (such as DDS tape drives, DLT tape drives or CD-ROM drives). This is because most of these devices do not handle buses with Multiple Initiators properly. This restriction does not apply for Fibre Channel or SS, since Fibre Channel and SS switches provide the needed isolation. ny Fibre Channel or SS Host Bus dapters and Switches supported by HP-UX are also with Serviceguard, SGeRC, and SG SMS. Supported Host Bus dapters for HP-UX can be found at:

10 n important note on third-party mass storage HP only tests HP mass storage devices to verify that they meet HP Serviceguard Solutions high availability requirements, therefore full support is provided for these devices only. The sole exception to this is EMC Symmetrix disk arrays. ll mass storage devices listed on this web page are fully supported (with noted exceptions where appropriate) for use with Serviceguard. Some third party mass storage has been tested for basic functionality with HP Serviceguard, and these devices can be supported for use in Serviceguard clusters if an allowance is granted for the configuration by HP. These devices are listed in the Third Party Storage Interoperability matrix at: See the details at the bottom of that web page for information on how to request an allowance. There you will find a matrix of third party mass storage devices supported on HP-UX, which also indicates whether or not the device is supported for HP Serviceguard. Please note that the mass storage devices listed as supported with HP Serviceguard on this web page are not fully supported in that HP has not fully tested them and cannot guarantee that they meet all of HP Serviceguard availability requirements. For support of a cluster with these third party mass storage devices, the third party device vendors, rather than HP, will take the lead in the support of their mass storage devices with HP Serviceguard. If you wish to obtain support for a mass storage device listed in the Third Party Storage Interoperability matrix, please contact your HP representative and request to have an allowance for support of the device. 10
