When you plan to use array LUNs with ONTAP systems, you must communicate with the storage array and switch administrators so that the back-end devices are configured to work with ONTAP systems.
The following table summarizes the major planning tasks and the location of information to help you with each task.
| Planning task | Where to find information |
|---|---|
Determining requirements for setting up your storage array to work with ONTAP |
|
Guidelines for array LUN use with ONTAP |
|
Determining ONTAP limits regarding array LUNs |
|
Determining a LUN security scheme, setting access controls on the storage array and, if switches are deployed, setting zoning on switches |
|
Determining a port-to-port connectivity scheme between the ONTAP systems and the storage array |
|
Determining which ONTAP system is to “own” which array LUN (disk ownership) |
