Finding one initiator per zone
Hi,
We have few servers,tape libraries,4 Brocade switches ports 24,HP SAN 24 switch(ports 80)and cisco catalyst switches.
The storage involves EVA and 2 XP 24000
there are zones created on all the switches as well as trunks.
My actions for finding max one initiator per zone
1>collect all wwn of HBAs of servers,tapes(from HP bladesystem onboard administrator)
2>check each zone has only one wwn HBA of either server or Tape - collected from step 1)
3>in case of HP EVA acting as external storage to XP24000 EVA would act as initiator in its zone--- right?
Is there any better way of doing this?

Re: Finding one initiator per zone
In the switch you can use the nsshow -t command to identify if the device is initiator or target. So, all information needed is on the switch itself.
You can use tools, for example, I use Brocade SAN Health to inventory the SAN.
