| Abstract: IBM PowerHA SystemMirror for AIX adds Enterprise Edition Support for the IBM XIV Storage System (2810-A14/2812-114) |
IBM PowerHA SystemMirror for AIX adds Enterprise Edition Support for the IBM XIV Storage System (2810-A14/2812-114)
December 16, 2011
IBM PowerHA SystemMirror for AIX* extends Enterprise Edition support to the IBM XIV Storage
System (models 2810-A14/2812-114).
IBM PowerHA SystemMirror for AIX Enterprise Edition will now support High Availability and Disaster
Recovery (HA/DR) capability with synchronous and asynchronous replication for the IBM XIV.
Support is available for both direct FC-attach and NPIV through VIOS. It is not supported for attach
through VIOS/vSCSI.
Please refer to the following information for support details.
IBM XIV Storage System
(2810-A14/2812-114) | AIX V5.3 | AIX V6.1 | AIX V7.1 |
PowerHA SystemMirror V6.1 | PowerHA V6.1 SP7 (APAR IV11782),
AIX V5.3 TL9,
RSCT 2.4.13.0 | PowerHA V6.1 SP7 (APAR IV11782),
AIX V6.1 TL5 SP1,
RSCT 2.5.5.2 | PowerHA V6.1 SP7 (APAR IV11782),
AIX V7.1,
RSCT V3.1.0.3 |
Clients are advised to obtain the latest service updates for this support.
Notes:
- PowerHA requires XIV microcode level 10.2.4 or later for the 2810-A14 and XIV microcode
level 11.0.0 or later for the 2812-114
- When XIV is used in an EE cluster, both sites must use the same model of XIV. That is,
having both a 2810-A14 and a 2812-114 in the same cluster is not supported. IBM intends
to remove this restriction in a future release.
- Multipath I/O via iSCSI is not supported at this time. IBM intends to remove this restriction
in a future product update.
