AIX 5.2 and DS4300 Storage

Hello,

We're setting up a solution for a group of customers with 2 p520 servers and 1 DS4300 unit with 9 disks (at this stage). The meaning is to create two arrays on the DS4300. Both servers will be connected to the DS4300 unit and to both controllers (e.g. Controller 1 connected to server 1 and 2 and Controller 2 connected to server 1 and 2 for redundancy) through fiber optics. My question is now: First. what do I set up as configuration on both servers under AIX 5.2 so that server 1 connects/only sees array 1 and server 2 connects/only sees array 2. Second. Can this configuration be changed in an easy way in case one of the servers is unavailable?

Any remarks/advice is greatly appreciated.

Kind regards,

Eric Van Steenbergen
