Using SAN storage
Alcatel-Lucent supports the use of SAN storage. SAN connectivity must consist of 4Gb
or faster optical connections with dedicated Fiber Channel connections between the hosts
and storage arrays. The SAN must be available to 5620 SAM without interruption in a
low latency environment.
See the following table for required mount points and performance targets when using
5620 SAM with a SAN. Note that certain mount points may not be required due to
deployment options. Refer to the 5620 SAM | 5650 CPAM Installation and Upgrade
Guide for required mount points based upon the type of 5620 SAM workstations
deployed. The 5620 SAM Auxiliary Database is not supported with a SAN where directly
attached disks are required to meet the high I/O requirements.

The 5620 SAM | 5650 CPAM Installation and Upgrade Guide should be consulted for
recommended partition sizes.
Note: Alcatel-Lucent is not responsible for installation, administration or recovery of
SANs on a 5620 SAM platform.
