1.3 General Information for SPARCstorage Array Model 100 and 200 Systems

The SPARCstorage Array connects to a host system using fibre optic cables.
These cables connect to a Fibre Channel Optical Module (FC/OM) mounted on
a Fibre Channel SBus (FC/S) card on the host system side, and to an FC/OM
mounted on the array controller on the SPARCstorage Array side.

You can have a maximum of two FC/OMs per FC/S card on the host system
side and two FC/OMs on the array controller on the SPARCstorage Array side.
Because of the number of FC/OMs available on both the host system and the
SPARCstorage Array sides, you have several hardware configuration options
when connecting a SPARCstorage Array to a server. Chapter 2, “Hardware
Configurations,” contains all the information for you to choose the hardware
configuration that best suits your needs.

The SPARCstorage Array also has storage management software which offers
several software options. Chapter 3, “Software Configurations,” contains all the
information for you to choose the software configuration that best suits your
needs.
