Confirming storage connectivity
The following sections tell you how to confirm storage connectivity for the following
topologies:
v Switched fabric
v Arbitrated loop
Confirming storage connectivity for SGI in a switched-fabric topology
Confirming storage connectivity for SGI in a switched-fabric topology
This section contains an example of a switched fabric connection with the
fibre-channel adapter cards. The following conditions apply to this example:
v The PCI-FC-1P-OPT adapter cards are on PCI busses 6 and 8.
v There are four LUNs defined on the storage unit.
v There are two connections from the switch to two host adapters on the storage
v The switch is not zoned. Therefore, each LUN is available on each host adapter
