Advanced Reporting | Advanced Reporting supported | Special properties of a LUN discovered by the Device Discovery Layer (DDL) that helps storage administration. |
NDU | NDU supported | Support for upgrading code on storage array controllers while applications are running on servers. |
SAN Boot | SAN Boot supported | Support for booting a server from a multi-pathed LUN of a storage array and rootability on SAN LUNs. |
Thin Reclamation | Thin Reclamation supported | Optimizes storage by recovering blocks from deleted files or data. It adds the storage back to the storage thin pool. For LUNs that supported with thin reclamation are denoted by their Advanced Reporting attribute. |
To verify support for a given device, make sure that the manufacturer also shows support for the device in its own HCL. Devices are listed by the name and series model number provided by the manufacturer.

Supported | A check mark or any other details implies the device is supported with the features listed, if any. For support purposes, the check mark, or the instance of any software option in a cell in any of the matrices indicates Veritas support for the product stack under which the check mark appears. |
|
Not supported | The device is not supported for that product. | |
with fencing |
Supported with fencing | Veritas I/O fencing is required for Storage Foundation products. Veritas I/O fencing uses SCSI3 PGR capable devices to allow write access to members of the active cluster. If a split-brain condition occurs, these devices blocks access to non-members and help in fencing out nodes to prevent data corruption. |
Term | Meaning | Definition | Supported DSM Load Balance Mode (Windows Only) |
---|---|---|---|
Active/Active (A/A) | Array supported in Active/Active mode | A/A disk arrays support simultaneous I/O on all paths. | Fail Over Only (Active/Passive), Round Robin (Active/Active), Round Robin with Subset, Dynamic Least Queue Depth, Weighted Paths, Least Blocks, Balanced Path |
Active/Active-Asymmetric (A/A-A) | Array supported in Active/Active-Asymmetric mode | A/A-A arrays support simultaneous I/O on all paths, but seek the most optimized path for the I/O transmission rate. Asymmetric Logical Unit Access (ALUA) array support is also denoted by A/A-A. | Fail Over Only (Active/Passive), Round Robin (Active/Active), Dynamic Least Queue Depth, Least Blocks, Balanced Path |
Active/Passive (A/P) | Array supported in Active/Passive mode | A/P arrays in auto-trespass mode support I/O on a single primary (active) path, while the secondary (passive) path is engaged if the primary path fails. A/P implies A/P-C operation mode. | |
Active/Passive-Concurrent (A/P-C) | Array supported in Active/Passive-Concurrent mode | A/P-C arrays support I/O on multiple primary (active) paths, while the secondary (passive) paths are engaged if all primary paths fail. | Fail Over Only (Active/Passive), Round Robin (Active/Active), Dynamic Least Queue Depth, Least Blocks, Balanced Path |
Active/Passive-Group (A/P-G) | Array supported in Active/Passive-Group mode | A/P-G arrays support LUN group failover in which a group of LUNs is connected through a controller as a single failover entity, and failover occurs at the controller level rather than the LUN level. | |
Active/Passive-Failover (A/P-F) | Array supported in Active/Passive-Failover(explicit) mode | A/P-F arrays in explicit Failover mode support I/O on a single primary (active) path, while the secondary (passive) path is engaged through the use of an explicit command if the primary path fails. |

Storage arrays qualified with Storage Foundation HA or Storage Foundation for Oracle RAC were tested with fencing enabled.
All storage configurations shown here were tested with drivers and firmware supported by the storage array vendors. Check with these vendors for:
Veritas supports hardware products listed here that include virtualization capability, but Veritas does not support compatibility issues that can be attributed to the virtualization feature. Veritas requires any compatibility issue to be reproduced in a non-virtualization environment. If the issue is confirmed to be related to Veritas products, Veritas will support its software at the same level as when that software is not running with hardware virtualization products. Veritas will cooperate with virtualization vendors, and attempt to assist in the diagnosis of problems found between the virtualization and Veritas products.
If the Device/family column in a table includes a third party multipathing qualifier (i.e. with PowerPath, with Subsystem Device Driver, with HDLM, or with DS Storage Manager), it means the storage array supports third party multipathing. If a row does not include a third party Multipathing qualifier, third party multipathing is not supported on that storage array.
Supported third party multi-pathing solutions are: PowerPath, SDD DSM, HDLM, and Storage Manager.
Hardware-specific features like LUN Snapshot or Thin Reclamation are supported only if they are explicitly listed for the devices. When a hardware-specific feature is listed, it applies to all product stacks (SF, SF Oracle, SFHA, SFW, SFW HA, and SFCFS/SFCFS Oracle/SF Oracle RAC).
For Active/Active (A/A) arrays, unless stated otherwise, Veritas supports the same Non-Disruptive Upgrade (NDU) operations that the storage vendor supports.
For more information about the arrays listed here, including specific settings, see "Related Documents" in the Storage Foundation and High Availability Solutions Hardware TechNote 47728.
For information on Storage Foundation DMP co-existence with OS native multi-pathing drivers such as Multipath I/O (MPIO) on AIX and Multiplex I/O (MPxIO) on Solaris, see TechNote 51507.
