Hey there, I cannot find any documentation for this scenario and wanted to double check. Basically, we have a host with 6 HBAs configured. 2 for Boot, 2 for Production Data, and 2 will be taken by Hyper-V for Direct SAN to the VMs. In the 3Par Management Console, if we wanted to separate the traffic from boot and production, would I create separate hosts for each HBA set? In this case it would look like: Host1Boot (011, 111, 012, 112)* Host1Prod (211, 311, 313, 312)* * For Persistent Ports Or does 3Par not support that and would rather have all traffic coming from one set of HBAs touching all nodes? |

Why on gods green earth would you spend ~$2000 per host for dedicated boot hba's? All you need to do is assign the boot volume as lun 1 on the production HBA. |

There is absolutely no reason to have this setup, so I dount its documented anywhere. Should work as you've put though, but I honestly can't see the point. |
