Multiple paths
Use of drivers for ETERNUS Disk storage systems which support path redundancy control
Configure a multipath environment, and select a driver for ETERNUS Disk storage
systems which supports path redundancy control to increase redundancy and reliability of
the connection between the ETERNUS Disk storage systems and the server.
For 1-port Fibre Channel cards used in system configurations that emphasize redundancy,
8Gbit/s 1-port Fibre Channel cards (MC-08FC81) or 4Gbit/s 1-port Fibre Channel cards
(MC-08FC31/MC-08FC51) are recommended for use.
For 2-port Fibre Channel cards (MC-08FC41/MC-08FC61/MC-08FC91), configurations in
which both ports of any given card connect to the same storage system are not
recommended.
