L1000 Unix server, HBA A5158A and Autoloader 1/9 with LTO

[Jenny Nyström]

Hi

A customer of mine would like to use an Autoloader 1/9, LVDS, LTO, with a Fibre Channel Bridge (probably 2/1, A4689A) and an L1000 Unix server with a HBA, A5158A.

Does anybody know if that is supported? I can??t find the information anywhere.

Thanks Jenny

Hi,

Yes it is supported, but there are a
number of things you need to be aware
of in this type of configuration. The
first is the FC bridges must be run as
fabric, so if you include a Brocade
switch as well, this will also have to
be fabric.

Have a look at these links for information
on setting one up.
