Summary Key points covered in this module: Access Logix allows hosts to access data on the array A storage group is a collection of one or more LUNs or metaLUNs to which you connect one or more hosts. Hosts can access only the LUNs in the storage group to which it is connected 21Managing Host Access to Storage
