FC switch
The zoning must be set correctly in the Fibre Channel switch. These settings must be entered by a qualified technician.
X2000
Use the SE Manager to configure the volumes of the storage system as BS2000 volumes.
For reasons of simplicity, only devices of a single storage system controller should be generated for each host connector (visible to BS2000 as a bus channel).
The volumes can also be configured if their status is NOT-READY or READ-ONLY. This is particularly useful for units to which data is copied during replication.
BS2000
Devices connected via Fibre Channel do not have a controller. This gives rise to the following special features:
No controller mnemonic names are output by the SHOW commands.
ETERNUS DX/AF
The devices in the storage system have FBA track format.
The configuration settings should be entered by a qualified technician.
The information provided below applies for ETERNUS DX/AF and the various levels when BS2000 volumes are configured on x86 servers over a Fibre Channel.
