Figure 3-3: Host Port Connections with a Dual-controller Subsystem
Shown above is an example showing a redundant-controller RAID
with its disk drives configured into two logical drives and fault-tolerant
host links. Use of Multi-path software, e.g., Infortrend's EonPath, is
recommended for its load-balancing algorithms. The configuration is
summarized as follows:
Logical Drives
Host LUN
Mapping
Host links
rd
* 3
-party Multi-path will be necessary to control the access/failover through
fault-tolerant links.
