K-Series connected to New EMC Clariion

[Dan Matlock_1]

Yes, I know we should be off of the K-Series (lol), but question is:

Has anyone connected a older K-Series through cisco fabric to a newer clariion storage device lately? If so, what HBA/part # are you using?

I have to migrate from a scsi attached failing disk unit to our clariion. Contract dictates that we must keep K-box around for another year.

Its been a long time since I did HW on K-series, so hope/assume there is a tachyon type card that I could buy for this purpose.....

Shalom Dan,

Good news. I used to keep D class boxes on Fiber so its quite possible tofind supported cards.

You need to get positive confirmation but:
A3495A Will probably work.

Or
A4920A

A6684A

A6748A

All appear to be HSC FCA cards.

At least one of these actually supported on the K Class

Ignore the Hebrew, Google thinks its smarter than me again.
