SAN booting with SnapDrive
This chapter describes what SAN booting is and how SnapDrive for Windows
supports it.
- About SAN booting
The term SAN booting means using a SAN-attached disk, such as a storage system LUN, as a boot device for a SAN host. It also entails removing internal disks from the host so the host uses the SAN for all its storage needs.
- How SnapDrive supports SAN booting
SnapDrive for Windows identifies bootable LUNs and prevents you from performing some of the operations you would normally perform on a nonbootable LUN.
