Open-systems hosts with fibre-channel adapters
Note: Because of possible interactions between host bus adapters in switched
configurations, IBM recommends that you establish zones that contain a
single port attached to a host bus adapter with the desired number of ports
attached to ESS. You can establish the zones by using either the hard (by
port) or soft (by WWN) zoning method. You can configure ports that are
attached to the ESS in more than one zone, which allows multiple host bus
adapters to share access to the ESS fibre-channel ports. Shared access to
an ESS fibre-channel port might be from host platforms that use a
combination of supported host bus adapter types and operating systems.
SCSI host systems
Each SCSI adapter has two ports. With SCSI adapters you can connect up to 128
host systems when you serially interconnect them. The ESS supports the following
host systems for SCSI attachment:
v
Hewlett Packard with the HP-UX operating system
v
IBM RISC System/6000
®
and RISC System/6000 SP with the IBM AIX operating
system
v
IBM AS/400 with the IBM Operating System/400 (OS/400) Version 3 or Version 4
v
Personal computer servers with Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 operating systems
v
Personal computer servers with Microsoft Windows 2000 operating systems
v
Sun with the Solaris operating system
v
Data General with the DG UX operating system
v
Personal computer servers with Novell Netware
See the following ESS Web site for details about types, models, adapters, and the
operating systems that the ESS supports for SCSI-attached host systems:

Fibre-channel host systems
Each ESS fibre-channel adapter has one port. With fibre-channel adapters you can
connect up to 127 host systems. See “Fibre-channel connection” on page 10 for
information on the fibre-channel protocols that the ESS supports. The ESS supports
the following host systems for fibre-channel attachment:
v
IBM RISC System/6000 and RISC System/6000 SP with the IBM AIX operating
system
v
Personal computer servers with Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 operating systems
v
Personal computer servers with Windows 2000 operating systems
v
IBM NUMA-Q with DYNIX/ptx
v
Hewlett Packard with the HP-UX operating system
v
Personal computer servers with Novell NetWare
v
Sun with the Solaris operating system
See the following ESS Web site for details about types, models, adapters, and the
operating systems that the ESS supports for fibre-channel attached host systems:
