Intra-Site
Configuration
After both Fibre Channel switches are correctly zoned, complete this procedure to set
up the intra-site configuration for the Synchronous Mirroring premium feature.
NOTE Complete all connections by using Fibre Channel cables of the correct length.
1. Are you adding equipment for the Synchronous Mirroring premium feature to an
existing storage array environment?
— Ye s – Stop I/O activity from all hosts before proceeding. Go to step 2.

ATTENTION Possible hardware damage – DC-powered controller-drive trays and
drive trays have special power procedures that you must follow beyond the procedures
for AC-powered trays. To get specific power-off and power-on procedures, refer to the
topics under the storage array installation for the hardware that you are installing or to
the corresponding PDF document on the SANtricity ES Storage Manager Installation
DVD.
2. Turn off the power to all storage arrays, hosts, Fibre Channel switches, and any
other equipment in the storage array environment.
3. Make sure that basic connection between all of the controller trays or
controller-drive trays and the drive trays is complete on both storage arrays as
described in this document.
