XIV code, not SVC Code

FYI, A9000 has it's linage in XIV Code, not SVC Code.

The back-end of A9000 being InfiniBand really does not impact if the front end is SCSI over FC or NVMe over FC, just like a more monolithic array might use PCI vs PCIe, vs a Fabric extension PCIe. The A9000 host interfaces are on the Grid Controllers, which talk iSCSI over 10 Gig Ethernet and SCSI over 16 gig FC.

The SVC linage product is V9000
