Set up 3PAR storage device hardware

Keep in mind the following considerations when integrating an HP 3PAR StoreServ storage device in the CloudSystem environment.

  • Configure the HP 3PAR StoreServ FC or iSCSI storage system to support storage requirements for compute nodes and virtual machine instances. The FC and iSCSI devices require connectivity to the management console of a supported HP 3PAR storage system.

    For configuration information ,see HP 3PAR StoreServ documentation.

  • If you are using Hyper-V compute nodes, use 3PAR iSCSI.

  • Make sure that the 3PAR StoreServ storage system server certificate contains a Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) in the CN attribute Subject field.

  • For block storage volumes, enable REST API web services on the 3PAR StoreServ.
