HP StoreOnce 4420 VTL,Backup exec and Failover Cluster (windows 2008 R2)

Hello.

I want to install BackupExec in two nodes of a Failover cluster (Windows 2008 R2) to use the VTL and i have some questions about the connections between this elements.

 

ISCSI connections:

If i connect the cluster nodes to the VTL through ISCSI and the backupexec service failover to the other node, i need to reconnect the ISCSI (of the other node) to the VTL manualy or will reconnect automatily?

 

FC connections:

VTL with Fc connections can support multiple connections from diferents hosts??

If i connect the cluster nodes to the VTL through FC and the backupexec service failover to the other node, the library will be connected or i need to do something to connect it?

Thanks.

Has this been resolved?  I'm running into a similar situation with FC and Backup Exec 2012 in a failover cluster (two nodes).

 

Can I create two zones containing the same StoreOnce VTL WWPN for each BUEX server?
