Task 3: Making Management and Data Connections
VTrak models have two RAID controllers. Each controller has an Ethernet (RJ45)
Management Port connector that enables you to monitor the VTrak over your
network using the WebPAM PROe Software. VTrak supports HTTP, HTTPS, and
Telnet protocols.
The VTrak RAID controllers have two 4-Gb Fibre Channel (FC) connections for
the data ports. See Figure 3.
You can configure your VTrak for:
•
Storage Area Network (SAN)
•
Direct Attached Storage (DAS)
•
JBOD Expansion using a SAS data connection
