Best Practices for the Sun StorEdge 3510 and 3511 FC Arrays 23
■ Three SFP modules to support five connections (Sun StorEdge 3511 SATA array
only)
■ Four SFP modules to support six connections (Sun StorEdge 3511 SATA array
only)
■ Using two single-port FC host bus adapters (HBAs) or a dual-port 2-Gbit FC HBA
in single-server or dual-server configurations makes optimum use of the Fibre
Channel array’s performance. Mapping logical drive partitions to two paths while
using multipathing software and load balancing provides the best performance.
