SWITCH

The illustration above depicts the utilization of the iSCSI host ports for remote data replication.

Two hybrid systems, a source system and a target system, reside within the same virtual pool but are

physically apart. You can create a volume copy/mirror pair for data protection without relying on slow

management LAN cable connections. In such case, you can link the hybrid systems using iSCSI host

ports. If the distances between systems are far, additional switches may be required.
