Yes sirs J

 

I’ve zoned the two Brocade assigning HBA from filer and hosts. Now if I perform a ‘fcadmin channels’ on the heads I see ONLY the 4 HBA of the filer! The Windows ones have disappeared J

 

Of course multipath, single image clustering of 3020C and SAN works…

 

Thank you very much.

Almost certainly this is due to inconsistent zoning on the Brocade, or missing zoning for the filer ports on that switch.  If you are seeing one listing for each initiator, then those are probably coming through the interconnect.

Hi

 

I’ve  just set up a 3020C with two HBA attached to a couple of Brocade, and on these, 2 couple of HBA coming from 2 Windows host. A SAN, do you know it? J

The links are the usual ones: i.e. the 1st HBA of host “A” to the upper Brocade, the 2nd to the lower and so on…the 0b of the head to the upper, the 0d to the lower and the same for other head.

 

When I perform a scan of fcp channels (priv set advanced, don’t remember now the command) from one of the two head of the 3020C I see 4 WWN of the 4 HBA of the hosts repente two times (4 real and 4 replicated) and I’ve already saw this times ago (the path is replicated through the cluster interconnect).

 

But when I perform the same from the other head I can see only 4 WWN belonging to the hosts.

 

Why? Something wrong on link of the hosts to the couple of switch?

Maybe because I’ve not yet zoned the switches?

 

Thanx a lot
