2003 (32-bit) Installation and Configuration Guide
StorageWorks recommends using the settings in Table 16 for your Windows
NT/Windows 2000/Windows Server 2003 (32-bit) Cluster configuration when
configured for FC-AL topology.
Adding a Second Storage RAID Array to a Fibre Channel Loop
Your Windows NT/Windows 2000/Windows Server 2003 (32-bit) Fibre Channel
Cluster configuration may include an additional Enterprise & Modular Storage
RAID Array on the same Fibre Channel loop. Adding an additional subsystem
will require you to change the AL_PA settings for host port 1 and host port 2 to
AL_PA settings 73 and 74 respectively. See Example 1 on changing your AL_PA
settings and refer to Figure 57.
