SAN Configuration

The server blade provides FC support for SAN implementations. This solution
uses an optional FCA that offers redundant SAN connectivity and optimization
for HP StorageWorks products. The server blade is also compatible with certain
third-party SAN products. For more information, refer to the documentation that
ships with the FCA option.

For optimal SAN connectivity, observe the following guidelines:

The FCA option is installed correctly in the server blade. Refer to the
documentation that ships with the FCA option.

An FC-compatible interconnect is installed in the enclosure. Refer to the
documentation that ships with the interconnect option.

The server blade enclosure management module firmware is up-to-date.
Refer to the HP Business Support Center website
(

).


The server blade is cabled properly to a supported SAN.

SAN storage drivers are loaded. Refer to supporting white papers and the HP
website (

For SAN configuration information for the server blade, refer to the HP
StorageWorks SAN Design Reference Guide
