That makes sense. One more question. Is it possible to have your current non-NPIV configuration setup and enable NPIV, then migrate servers over to npiv zoning. Or do we turn it on and re-zone all our servers.
I would like to enable it, test it. Once tested, start moving servers over to npiv. Does that make sense?

That's the only way to effectively manage SAN security where you have more virtual servers connecting to the SAN than you have zFCP ports.
