A service provider is implementing a VMAX splitter with four RPA RecoverPoint/EX clusters. How should the RPA and the host FC ports be zoned, and the LUNs masked?
A.
AIl RPAs must be zoned and masked to different FA ports as the hosts
B.
Only RPA 3 and RPA 4 must be zoned and masked to the same FA ports as the hosts
C.
Only RPA 1 and RPA 2 must be zoned and masked to the same FA ports as the hosts
D.
AIl RPA FC ports must be zoned and masked to the same FA ports as the hosts
Zoning: All RecoverPoint Appliance (RPA) Fibre Channel (FC) ports must be zoned to the same Front-End (FA) ports as the hosts.This is to ensure that the RPAs can see the LUNs and perform the necessary operations1.
LUN Masking: After zoning, LUN masking must be configured to expose the LUNs to both the hosts and the RPAs through the same FA ports.This involves setting up the initiator group, port group, and storage group correctly1.
For detailed instructions on zoning and LUN masking with VMAX splitters, it is recommended to refer to the RecoverPoint Deploying with Symmetrix Arrays Technical Notes document, which provides comprehensive guidelines for these configurations1.
