Re: HP Virtual Connect 4Gb Fibre Channel Module cabling
on production ;
but what happend before two days I connected aditional 2 cable from left to fabric_a(totally 4 cables) and aditional 2 cable from right to fabric_b(totally 4 cables) and add them to SAN profile on VC manager
but acritical problem occured that many of our VMs on vmware hosted on san cannot respnde for seconds this happend after 10 minute of cabling . then I minimize configuration to use only 2 fromleft and 2 from right .and the problem disappear.

Re: HP Virtual Connect 4Gb Fibre Channel Module cabling
1. The ports in a VC SAN must all come from the same module.
2. The ports in a VC SAN must all connect to the same FABRIC.
Example 1.
VC SAN Fabric
FC Module 1
Port 1 --> SAN_1 ---> Fabric_A
Port 2 --> SAN_1 ---> Fabric_A
Port 3 --> SAN_1 ---> Fabric_A
Port 4 --> SAN_1 ---> Fabric_A
FC Module 2
Port 1 --> SAN_2 ---> Fabric_B
Port 2 --> SAN_2 ---> Fabric_B
Port 3 --> SAN_2 ---> Fabric_B
Port 4 --> SAN_2 ---> Fabric_B
Example 2:
FC Module 1
Port 1 --> SAN_A1 ---> Fabric_A
Port 2 --> SAN_A1 ---> Fabric_A
Port 3 --> SAN_B1 ---> Fabric_B
Port 4 --> SAN_B1 ---> Fabric_B
FC Module 2
Port 1 --> SAN_A2 ---> Fabric_A
Port 2 --> SAN_A2 ---> Fabric_A
Port 3 --> SAN_B2 ---> Fabric_B
Port 4 --> SAN_B2 ---> Fabric_B
Both of these configurations obey the rules (we actually use Example 2 since it provides redundancy in the event of a SAN Switch/Fabric failure)

You might also want to assign points, if appropriate. (it encourages people to help.)
