System Overview Installation Checklist
S
Host Z (not shown) can be added to this configuration. SANsurfer FC HBA Manager supports up to 30 hosts. The only limiting factor is that the SANsurfer FC HBA Manager Agent must be run on each host in turn.
The RAID system offers eight LUNs, numbered
Both hosts X and Y can recognize both targets on both adapters. In SANsurfer FC HBA Manager, each target device is configured with one adapter as its preferred path and (optionally) one adapter as its alternate path. Ensure that both controllers are configured as enabled and not masked on a target level.
On host X, the LUN mask for both controllers is set to enable LUNs
The two alternate systems function independently, based on the configuration, operation of the RAID subsystem’s LUN alternate, and type of failure that occurs. If access to a target controller is lost, RAID subsystem LUN failover handles the recovery. If access to a target controller is available on an alternate path, adapter failover handles the recovery.
