Redundant host and drive loops
This section provides examples of DS4200 Express host fibre channel
configurations.
DS4200 Express host configurations: This section provides the following
examples of DS4200 Express host fibre channel configurations:
v
Redundant host and drive fibre channel loop configurations, as shown in
Figure 56
v Single SAN fabric configuration, as shown in Figure 57 on page 76
v Dual SAN fabric configuration, as shown in Figure 58 on page 76
v Two storage subsystems in a dual SAN fabric configuration, as shown in
Figure 59 on page 77
v Two clusters, as shown in Figure 60 on page 77
Notes:
1. These configurations have host and drive path failover protection and are
recommended for high availability.
2. The following illustrations do not accurately represent the controller locations or
port locations in the DS4200 Express. The illustrations are for illustration
purposes only.
In Figure 57 on page 76, the fibre channel switches are connected together via the
inter-switch link (ISL) to form a single SAN fabric.
