Go to SolutionXtremIO Zoning Best Practices
Today we had our XtremIO Two Brick Storage Array Configured. I'm looking for some guidance on Zoning Best Practices to our FC Switches. With the Two Bricks we have a total of Eight Fiber Channel connections, Four Fiber Connections to Fabric A and Four Fiber Connections to Fabric B. Below are examples of the FC initiators "Aliases" from XtremIO connections Fabric A & B. How would I implement zoning for a new server that has two HBA's "One HBA per fabric" For Example: Server Name: UCS01 - (HBA1 "UCS01_HBA1" & "UCS01_HBA2"). Is it best to zone each HBA using one-to-one, or create one big zone set with all four XtremIO FC connections and my Server HBA?
Does our servers see storage from both X-Bricks? If so would we just zone one server to one X-Brick? Looking for guidance, whitepapers, best practices, etc...
Switch "Fabric A" aliases "UCS01_HBA1" |
"X1_SC1_A"
"X1_SC2_A"
"X2_SC1_A"
"X2_SC2_A"
Switch "Fabric B"
aliases
"UCS01_HBA2"
"X1_SC1_B"
"X1_SC2_B"
"X2_SC1_B"
"X2_SC2_B"
Thank You
Terry
