Dell F-Series manual Installing the QLogic Fibre Channel Configuration Utility

8.Configure zoning on the Fibre Channel switches by turning on the servers one at a time. Each zone consists of a cluster pair (2 servers), the PowerVault 65xF, and the Fibre Channel-to-SCSI bridge (if that zone is participating in the SAN backup).

See the Dell PowerVault SAN documentation for information about configuring zoning.

9.Start the Storage Consolidation Administrator on the Storage Consolidation Master node. For each cluster, use the Server Group Assign option to assign LUNs to both cluster nodes. It is important to use the Server Group Assign option to assign one disk to multiple servers.

See the Dell OpenManage Storage Consolidation documentation for more information.

10.Shutdown Windows on all of the servers.

11.Install MSCS software on each cluster. Because each cluster has its own set of disks now, follow the standard PowerEdge Cluster F-Series installation (format the disks, assign the drive letters, and install MSCS software, and so on).

12.Install Dell OpenManage Data Agent on both nodes of one cluster and create the Generic Service cluster resource for the Agent.
