Sun StorEdge Network FC Switch-8 and Switch-16 Installation and Configuration Guide • October 2001

Note –

You can attach different storage types to the same switch so long as the

storage devices are on different zones.

Each controller that is connected to a switch must have a unique loop ID. Whenever
you add a second controller to a switch, make sure that the loop ID of the controller
being connected is different from the loop ID of any other controller currently
connected to the same switch.

Refer to “Setting the Loop ID” on page 32 for instructions on setting the loop ID of a
controller.

Caution –

Ensure that the controller modules are not connected to the same switch.
