Supported VC SAN Fabric configuration To form a Virtual Connect SAN fabric correctly, participating uplinks must be connected to the same SAN fabric: VC SAN 1 VC SAN 2 VC SAN 1 VC SAN Fabrics defined in the VC Domain VC-FC Module VC-FC Module Fabric 1 Fabric 2 Fabric 1 Fabric 2 External Datacenter SAN Fabrics Different Virtual Connect SAN fabrics can be connected to the same SAN fabric: VC SAN 1 VC SAN 2 VC-FC Module Fabric 1 This configuration gives you more granular control over which server blades use each VC-FC port, while also enabling the distribution of servers according to their I/O workloads.
