This
section
lists
the
requirements
for
attaching

are
enough
fibre-channel
adapters
installed
in
the
server
to
manage
the
total
LUNs
you
want
to

representative
must
perform
the
following
tasks
to
install
and
configure
a
storage
unit:
1.
Install
the
storage
unit
by
using
the
procedures
in
the
IBM
TotalStorage
DS6000
Installation,
Troubleshooting,
and
Recovery
Guide
.
2.
Define
the
fibre-channel
host
system
with
the
worldwide
port
name
identifiers.
For
the
list
of
worldwide
port
names,
see
“Locating
the
worldwide
port
name
(WWPN),”
on
page
211.
3.
Define
the
fibre-port
configuration
if
you
did
not
do
it
when
you
installed
the
storage
unit
or
fibre-channel
adapters.
4.
Configure
the
host
system
for
the
storage
unit
by
using
the
instructions
in
your
host
system
publications.
Note:
SDD
does
not
support
the
Sun
host
system
in
a
clustering
environment.
To
have
failover
protection
on
an
open
system,
SDD
requires
a
minimum
of
two
fibre-channel
adapters.
The
maximum
number
of
fibre-channel
adapters
supported
is
16
for
a
total
of
16
fibre-channel
ports.
You
can
use
the
SDD
for
the
following
Sun
host
system
modes:
v
Sun
host
hardware
platforms
with
32-
or
64-bit
mode
capabilities
that
run
Solaris
8
or
Solaris
9.
