> It is possible to attach more than one host to a single T3+ array (with
> 1Gb cache
> controller). The required firmware is 2.1.0 (or greater). This version of
> firmware
> also supports up to 16 LUNs per tray. The number of hosts supported
> depends on
> the application workload.

> important
> requirement for us. I would also check with your local Sun Support
