FUJITSU AF/DX plug-in configuration parameters
User - Role-based access control rights allow users to have different privileges. This provides a means to segregate administration roles to align better with skill sets and responsibilities. There are 5 types of access for users: admin, storage admin, security admin, account admin, and maintainer.
You need user roles who can perform operations like create, modify, delete, attach, detach, snapshot, restore, clone.
IP Address/FQDN - The IP/FQDN which is used to access the GUI for the array can be used to configure the array in NetBackup. the user needs to provide the management IP. Example, If the management IP is 10.221.xxx.xx, the user can register the array with NetBackup using IP - 10.221.xxx.xx.

Create snapshot operation:
We must have a thin provision pool.
Source volume types are Standard, TPV, FTV, and WSV (except for the system volume).
The destination volume type must be TPV only.
The maximum number of snapshots (SnapOPC+ Sessions) that can be created per volume is 512.
Host connection (mapping):
Available HLUNs are between 0 and 255.
If you want to use 256 or more HLUNs/Volumes to the host, change the LUN address of the host response to Host Response (flat space address) or you can enable LUN Expand Mode option.
Then you can use HLUN up to 4096.
