Configuring Fibre Channel With Dell MD3600f/

3620f/MD3660f Series Storage Arrays

This document provides information about configuring Fibre Channel communication between the host server and the

storage array. For basic setup information such as racking, power cabling, and recommended handling procedures, see

NOTE: The cabling and configuration concepts shown in this document apply to both 2U- and 4U-based Dell fibre-

channel storage arrays.

NOTE: The MD Series Dense storage arrays represent the Dell PowerVault MD3600f/3620f/MD3660f storage arrays.

Configuring Fibre Channel On Direct- and SAN-Attached Storage

Arrays

You can cable the host server to the storage array in one of two ways:

•

A direct host server-to-storage array connection using a supported Fibre Channel cable

•

A storage array network (SAN) using supported Fibre Channel switch(es)

NOTE: For detailed information on supported Fibre Channel hardware, see the

manuals.

Table 1 shows the order of configuration steps for both types of connections. These steps assume you are setting up a

Fibre Channel storage for the first time.

NOTE: If you are adding an additional Fibre Channel storage array or if your host server is already configured to

access Fibre Channel storage, some of the steps in Table 1 may not apply. Before proceeding, see the

Matrix to confirm that your existing hardware components and host bus adapter (HBA) firmware and BIOS levels

are supported.
