Prerequisites
EachcontrollermusthavetwoavailableFCfront‐endports.
Steps
1 ConnecteachFCservertobothFCfabrics.
2 Connectfaultdomain1(showninorange)tofabric1.
 PrimaryportP1:ControllerA,slot1,port1→Fabric1
 ReservedportR1:ControllerB,slot1,port1→Fabric1
3 Connectfaultdomain2(showninblue)tofabric1.
 PrimaryportP2:ControllerB,slot2,port1→Fabric1
 ReservedportR2:ControllerA,slot2,port1→Fabric1
