Fibre Channel Devices
This subsection describes Fibre Channel devices and covers these topics:
The only Fibre Channel device used internally with the Integrity NonStop NS1000
system is the Fibre Channel disk module (FCDM). An FCDM and its disk drives are
controlled through the Fibre Channel ServerNet adapter (FCSA). For more information
on the FCSA, refer to the
NonStop NS-Series Planning Guide or the Fibre-Channel
ServerNet Adapter Installation and Support Guide. For more information on the Fibre
Channel disk module (FCDM), see Fibre Channel Disk Module
on page 5-9. For
examples of cable connections between FCSAs and FCDMs, see Example
Configurations of the IOAM Enclosure and Fibre Channel Disk Module on page 6-14
This illustration shows an FCSA with indicators and ports (used and not used) in
