 IBM PowerHA SystemMirror for AIX adds Enterprise Edition Support for the IBM XIV Storage System (2810-A14/2812-114) 

December 16, 2011

IBM PowerHA SystemMirror for AIX* extends Enterprise Edition support to the IBM XIV Storage

System (models 2810-A14/2812-114).

IBM PowerHA SystemMirror for AIX Enterprise Edition will now support High Availability and Disaster

Recovery (HA/DR) capability with synchronous and asynchronous replication for the IBM XIV.

Support is available for both direct FC-attach and NPIV through VIOS. It is not supported for attach

through VIOS/vSCSI.Please refer to the following information for support details.

 IBM XIV Storage System 
 (2810-A14/2812-114) 
 AIX V5.3 
 AIX V6.1 
 AIX V7.1 
 PowerHA SystemMirror V6.1 
PowerHA V6.1 SP7 (APAR IV11782),
AIX V5.3 TL9,
RSCT 2.4.13.0
PowerHA V6.1 SP7 (APAR IV11782),
AIX V6.1 TL5 SP1,
RSCT 2.5.5.2
PowerHA V6.1 SP7 (APAR IV11782),
AIX V7.1,
RSCT V3.1.0.3

Clients are advised to obtain the latest service updates for this support.

 Notes: 

PowerHA requires XIV microcode level 10.2.4 or later for the 2810-A14 and XIV microcode level 11.0.0 or later for the 2812-114

When XIV is used in an EE cluster, both sites must use the same model of XIV. That is, having both a 2810-A14 and a 2812-114 in the same cluster is not supported. IBM intends to remove this restriction in a future release.

Multipath I/O via iSCSI is not supported at this time. IBM intends to remove this restriction in a future product update.
