The host types that appear in the drop-down list depend on the storage system model and the firmware version. The most recent versions display the most common options first, which are the most likely to be appropriate. Appearance on this list does not imply the option is fully supported.

For more information about host support, contact Fujitsu support personnel.

Some of the following host types might appear in the list:

Host Operating System type	Operating System (OS) and multipath driver
Linux DM-MP (Kernel 3.10 or later)	Supports Linux operating systems using a Device Mapper multipath failover solution with a 3.10 or later Kernel.
VMware ESXi	Supports VMware ESXi operating systems running the Native Multipathing Plug-in (NMP) architecture using the VMware built-in Storage System Type Policy module SATP_ALUA.
Windows (clustered or non-clustered)	Supports Windows clustered or non-clustered configurations that are not running the ATTO multipathing driver.
ATTO Cluster (all operating systems)	Supports all cluster configurations using the ATTO Technology, Inc., multipathing driver.
Linux (Veritas DMP)	Supports Linux operating systems using a Veritas DMP multipathing solution.
Linux (ATTO)	Supports Linux operating systems using an ATTO Technology, Inc., multipathing driver.
Mac OS (ATTO)	Supports Mac OS versions using an ATTO Technology, Inc., multipathing driver.
Windows (ATTO)	Supports Windows operating systems using an ATTO Technology, Inc., multipathing driver.
IBM SVC	Supports an IBM SAN Volume Controller configuration.
Solaris (Kernel 11 or later)	Supports Solaris oprationg system using a Solaris Native Multipathing (MPxIO) failover solution.
Factory Default	Reserved for the initial start-up of the storage system. If your host operating system type is set to Factory Default, change it to match the host operating system and multipath driver running on the connected host.
Linux DM-MP (Kernel 3.9 or earlier)	Supports Linux operating systems using a Device Mapper multipath failover solution with a 3.9 or earlier Kernel.
Window Clustered (deprecated)	If your host operating system type is set to this value, use the Windows (clustered or non-clustered) setting instead.
