Fibre Channel Switch Information

If your configuration will use one or more Fibre Channel switches, complete a Switch information worksheet for each switch. If your site will not use switches, skip this section, and continue with "Storage System Disk Information" on page 6.

Customer-installable SSR212PP-Series switches are easily configured (some are preconfigured) so any HBA connected to switch ports other than 0 and 4 communicates with storage processors connected to switch ports 0 or 4. With switches set up in such "hard zones," you can connect FE 0 or FE 1 to ports 0 and 4 only, and connect HBAs only to ports 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, or 7...16.
