Congure Fibre Channel Ports
Create a Fibre Channel fault domain to group FC ports for failover purposes.
1 On the rst Congure Fibre Channel Fault Tolerance page, select a transport mode: Virtual Port or Legacy.
2 Select the method for creating fault domains:
• Generate Fault Domain Conguration – One of the following fault domains is created, depending on system conguration and
mode selected:
Transport Mode One Controller Two Controllers
Virtual Port Two controller ports Two controller ports, one on each controller
Legacy One controller port Four controller ports, two on each controller
• Specify Number of Fault Domains – Set the number of fault domains to create.
3 Click Next.
NOTE: If you selected Generate Fault Domain Conguration, proceed to step
5.
4 If you selected Specify Number of Fault Domains, congure each fault domain.
a In the Name eld, type a name for the fault domain.
b (Optional) In the Notes eld, type notes for the fault domain.
c In the Ports table, select the Fibre Channel ports to add to the fault domain. All FC ports in the fault domain should be
connected to the same FC fabric.
d Click Next. If you are conguring more than one fault domain, repeat these steps for each domain.
5 On the nal Congure Fibre Channel Fault Tolerance page, review the fault domain setup.
6 (Optional) To change the fault domain setup, select from the following options:
• Click Create Fault Domain to create a new fault domain.
• Click Edit Fault Domain to edit the current fault domain.
• Click Remove to delete a fault domain.
7 Click Next.
• If you are setting up iSCSI fault domains, the Congure iSCSI Fault Domain page opens.
• If you are setting up SAS back-end ports but not iSCSI fault domains, the Congure Back-End Ports page opens.
• If you are not setting up iSCSI fault domains or SAS back-end ports, the Inherit Settings or Time Settings page opens.
Congure iSCSI Ports
Create an iSCSI fault domain to group ports for failover purposes.
1 On the rst Congure iSCSI Fault Tolerance page, select the number of fault domains to create, and then click Next.
2 On the next Congure iSCSI Fault Tolerance page, congure the rst fault domain:
a In the Name eld, type a name for the fault domain.
b (Optional) In the Notes eld, type notes for the fault domain.
c In the Target IPv4 Address eld, type an IP address to assign to the iSCSI control port.
d In the Subnet Mask eld, type the subnet mask for the IP address.
e In the Gateway IPv4 Address eld, type the IP address for the iSCSI network default gateway.
f In the Ports table, select the iSCSI ports to add to the fault domain. All iSCSI ports in the fault domain should be connected to
the same Ethernet network.
g Click Next. If you are conguring more than one fault domain, repeat these steps for each fault domain.
3 On the nal Congure iSCSI Fault Tolerance page, review the fault domain setup.
4 (Optional) To change the fault domain setup, select from the following options:
• Click Create Fault Domain to create a new fault domain.
