Do not try to use the FC60 on HP-UX in fabric mode. You could set it up but you would run into serious problems.
So stay with FCAL private loop in a QuickLoop zone!
To have a fully supported solution and to run without problems use seperate HBAs and zones for the VA7400 and the FC60.
See the attached drawing.
Cheers

Re: Does FC60 support Fabric mode
Hi Peter,
Thanks for the nice picture but how the performance or throughput would increase by creating quick loop for Fc60 and Fabric for VA7400.
What about device paths and device files,
would they be changed.
Do we have to reconfigure Volume Groups in our campus cluster.
Our systems are already in production and we want a solution without any major reconfiguration.
Could you provide more detail.
Thanks and Regd

Re: Does FC60 support Fabric mode
If your FC60 is directly connected now, it isn't likely to go any faster by connecting it via a switch. If you have multiple servers connected to hubs to a single FC60, I don't think you will see any performance increae either. If you have multiple servers connected to multiple FC60 arrays, then maybe adding switches would help but it depends. If you want the best performance on the FC60 array, you need all six disk trays (using six SCSI buses) and spreadout the disks physically to avoid hotspots. Make sure you have dual controllers.
