Perform FC-specific tasks

For the Fibre Channel protocol, you configure the switches and determine the host port identifiers.

  • Configuring the FC switches - Windows
    Configuring (zoning) the Fibre Channel (FC) switches enables the hosts to connect to the storage array and limits the number of paths. You zone the switches using the management interface for the switches.
  • Determining host WWPNs and making the recommended settings - FC, Windows
    You install an FC HBA utility so you can view the worldwide port name (WWPN) of each host port. Additionally, you can use the HBA utility to change any settings recommended in the Interoperability Matrix document for the supported configuration.
  • FC worksheet for Windows
    You can use this worksheet to record FC storage configuration information. You need this information to perform provisioning tasks.
