• Use one operating system in each individual DPM-Host zone. This can be done by implementing
only single initiator port zones as previously discussed in the zoning guidelines.
Figure 9 illustrates zoning between a single server with two dual-port HBAs and the first two quads
of a DPM pair with the recommended limit of eight front-end paths. Paths between server initiator
ports and DPM front-end target ports are color coordinated to represent the different zones to which
they belong within the red and blue fabrics.

.
It is common for multiple hosts to be zoned to the same DPM front-end target ports, particularly in
larger configurations where the number of host ports outnumber the DPM ports.
Figure 10 illustrates zoning between two servers with single dual-port HBAs and the first two quads
of a DPM pair with the servers being isolated from each other by being zoned to different quads on
each DPM.
