Hello,
We have a V3020 in front of an HDS AMS 1000. This presents itself to the V3020 as model DF700. The AMS has, up until now ,only been used by the V3020.
We have a requirement to change the model type, in the AMS itself, to DF600, to support a Windows host (don't ask).
The V3020 can certainly see the AMS' model type of DF700....

My question is, if we shutdon the V3020, changed the AMS model type to DF600, then restart the V3020, will it still recognise and claim these LUNs, even though the model type will have changed?
My primary concern is that we don't lose the data stored on these LUNs.
Many thanks,
Dean
