SAS disks and HPUX

Hi,
For some of the new Integrity servers, HP uses SAS disks instead of SCSI. There is also an RAID controller (P400) for the internal disks avialable.

You can find a number of SAS RAID controllers for external disks (e.g. P600,P800) avialable for the Integrity servers but, no support for HP-UX. Only Windows and Linux.

Does anyone know if this is some kind of "policy" or will there be support in HP-UX also for external SAS drives ?

There is a new support matrix, P800 is listed as supported with HP-UX now:

Hope this helps!

According to the matrix you can connect the MSA50/60/70 to this controller.
See the capacity here:

http://docs.hp.com/en/J6369-90065/apfs02.html

Be aware the controller is a PCIe device, so you need a server with PCIe slot options.

Hope this helps!
