Path Failover
Path Failover (formerly known as Native Storage Networking (nSNW)) is
a licensable feature that allows you to take advantage of control and
data path failover, as well as host access configuration features of IBM
and HP LTO-5 and later tape drives, without those drives being
connected to a Fibre Channel I/O blade and instead connected to an
Ethernet Expansion Blade (EEB)
Note: If an SNW license is applied to a drive that has dual ports, both
ports will be active. If there is no SNW license, only one of the
ports will be active.
