Spheras Storage Director Installation and User Guide
The Spheras Storage Director software is not designed to support the connection of multiple servers to a single storage
subsystem. While it is possible to connect multiple servers to a single storage subsystem, this configuration can cause
communication problems that affect the Spheras Storage Director software. In contrast, a single server can be connected
to multiple storage subsystems.
The Spheras Storage Director software is a based upon a classic client/server model. Therefore, a path to the Server
must be open for the Client to properly initialize. Failure to establish this path causes the Spheras Storage Director
Client to hang waiting for communication with the Server. See your system administrator for details.
