Set Up Network Connections
VTrak's RJ-45 network or Ethernet connectors are on RAID Controller at the
back of the unit. There is one management connection and two iSCSI data
connections.
The following procedures mention a Host PC. The Host PC is the PC you select
to directly control the VTrak through network and serial connections.
Storage Area Network
With this arrangement, both management information and data travel between
the Host PC and VTrak over the network. The arrangement requires:
•
Network HBA card, 1 Gb with iSCSI support
•
Network Switch, 1 Gb
