example, port 1 in slot 2 on each StoreAll node connects to switch 1 and port 2 in slot 2 on
each StoreAll node connects to switch 2. Also, port FC- 1 in node 0 of each 3PAR storage
connects to switch 1 and port FC-2 in node 1 of each 3PAR storage connects to switch 2.
(Switches are named 1 and 2 for example purposes only.)
If cabling an HP StoreAll 8200 Gateway system that uses multiple controllers and an HP 3PAR
StoreServ 7000-series controller without FC switches, connect each server FC HBA to a different
controller to ensure no single point of failure, hardware redundancy, and multipath capability.
If cabling an HP StoreAll 8200 Gateway system that uses multiple controllers and an HP 3PAR
StoreServ 7000-series controller with FC switch connectivity to application servers, connect
each server FC HBA to a different switch, and connect each HP 3PAR StoreServ 7000-series
controller to a different switch to ensure no single point of failure within the configuration,
hardware redundancy, and multi-path capability.
When cabling the HP 3PAR StoreServ 10000-series controllers to HP StoreAll 8200 Gateway
systems, note that three internal buses exist in each controller node. See the adapter installation
