Scenario 2: VC SAN fabrics with Dynamic Login Balancing connected to the same redundant SAN fabric Overview This scenario covers the setup and configuration of two VC SAN Fabrics with Dynamic Login Balancing Distribution, each utilizing two to eight uplink ports connected to a redundant Fabric. Figure 8 : 8:1 oversubscription with VC-FC 8Gb 20-Port modules using 4 uplink ports on a fully populated enclosure with 16 servers Server 1 Server 2 Server 3 … Server 16 HBA1 HBA2 HBA1 HBA2 HBA1 HBA2 … HBA1 HBA2 VC Domain Fabric--1 Fabric--2 VC-FC 8Gb 20-port Module Fabric 1 Fabric 2 Scenario 2: VC SAN fabrics with Dynamic Login Balancing connected to the same redundant SAN fabric 32
NOTE: Static Login Distribution has been removed since VC firmware 3.00 but is the only method available in VC firmware 1.24 and earlier. Dynamic Login Balancing capabilities are included in VC firmware 1.3x and later.
