MediaVault 4440 User Manual

SAN software can perform more complex functions, such as giving users different access to different parts of the arrays, or limiting bandwidth. SAN software typically requires a client program/license be installed on each client. However, if the number of clients becomes too great, it is recommended that a dedicated server also be used to manage the flow of the data.

Example 2

Here is a more complex example, using two hosts, one with a dual-channel host adapter (attached to ports 1 and 2), the second host computer with a quad-channel host adapter attached to ports 3 through 6. The Host-Grouped and 1:1 Relational techniques are used.

Host-Grouped

Create four zones

•Zone 1 contains ports 1, 3, and 7

•Zone 2 contains ports 2, 4, and 8

•Zone 3 contains ports 1, 5, and 9

•Zone 4 contains ports 2, 6, and 10

1:1 Relational Create eight zones:

•Zone 1 contains ports 1 and 7

•Zone 2 contains ports 2 and 8

•Zone 3 contains ports 3 and 7

•Zone 4 contains ports 4 and 8

•Zone 5 contains ports 1 and 9

•Zone 6 contains ports 2 and 10

•Zone 7 contains ports 3 and 9

•Zone 8 contains ports 4 and 10
