I'm setting up a new FAS2240 with a Dual FC card.
- both ports are target adapters
- each port is cabled to a separate brocade switch
- a Solaris server with 2 fiber cards are cabled, one to each switch
Basically there are two separate paths to the Filer from the server through two Brocade switches.
Where I'm confused is when I start Fiber channel services on the filer, the adapters come online, the links come up, but then there are two logins for each adapter. One of the logins on each adapter are from my server, networker.
Can anyone tell me what the second login on each adapter is from. I'm fairly certain it's not an outside system.
