SAN configuration
The server blade provides FC support for SAN implementations. This solution uses an optional FCA that
offers redundant SAN connectivity and optimization for HP StorageWorks products. The server blade is
also compatible with certain third-party SAN products. For more information, refer to the documentation
that ships with the FCA option.
For optimal SAN connectivity, observe the following guidelines:
• The FCA option is installed correctly in the server blade. Refer to the documentation that ships with
the FCA option.
• An FC-compatible interconnect is installed in the enclosure. Refer to the documentation that ships
with the interconnect option.
• The server blade enclosure management module firmware is up-to-date. Refer to the HP Business
Support Center website (http://www.hp.com/support
).
• The server blade is cabled properly to a supported SAN.
• SAN storage drivers are loaded. Refer to supporting white papers and the HP website
(http://www.hp.com/servers/rdp
).
For SAN configuration information for the server blade, refer to the HP StorageWorks SAN Design
