Connect Fibre Channel data ports
Use fiber-optic cables to connect the storage-system fibre data ports to the server.
1. Plug the cables into the Fibre Channel front-end ports.
2. Connect the free end of each fiber-optic cable:
• For a direct configuration between storage system and server, connect the
cables to Fibre Channel HBA ports.
• For a switch configuration between storage system and server, connect the
cables to Fibre Channel switch ports as shown in the example below.
For high availability:
• connect each HBA to at least one data port on each storage processor, or
• connect separate ports from a server to each storage processor.
