Can I Use RX2660 (HP Itanium 11.23) with IBM DS4800?

[Alissara]

We are going to migrate from RP7410 (11.11) to RX2660 (HP Itanium 11.23). Our RP7410 currently attach to IBM DS4800 (SAN). However, IBM document doesn’t tell that it support HP Itanium (UX 11.23) with IBM DS4800. I just wonder that is there any site already using HP Itanium 11.23 with IBM DS4800 Storage?? And is there any problem so far?

Thank you for your advice.
However, after I read that document, I still have some question in my mind. It said that IBM DS4800 doesn't support HP-UX 11.11i and 11.23 with PVLinks?? with footnotes no.7 that support for HP-Itanium based servers with HP-UX 11.23 may be requested via RPQ process?? Does this mean that it's not possible to use IBM DS4800 with HP-UX 11.23 - no way?? Or it could be able to, but there is something?

you can use it, but you will have to contact IBM for the specific configuration needed for it.
