When connecting more than one V-Switch 2000 to a group of storage devices, ensure that the same port on each V-Switch 2000 is used to connect to the same storage device. This increases the chance of the storage device receiving the same default storage number on both V-Switches during their auto-discovery cycles. This, in turn, makes cluster configuration easier.

There are two FC storage port LEDs labeled lnk, one to the left of each storage port.
