Step 3. Set the EVA iSCSI connectivity
option to fabric attachment mode
Figure 1 shows the direct-connect-mode configuration, as shipped from
HP. Figure 2 shows the fabric attachment mode configuration.
1. Remove the two black Fibre Channel cables connecting the
mpx100/100b to the HSV c ontrollers.
2. Insert SFPs into ports FC1 and FC2 on the mpx100/100b, and into
any available FP port on each HSV controller. Insert SFPs into four
available ports on the Fibre Channel switches.
3. Connect one end of the orange Fibre Channel cable to the FC1
port on the mpx100/100b. Connect the other end of the cable to
any available SFP port on the Fibre Channel switch.
4. Connect one end of the orange Fibre Channel cable to the FC2
port on the mpx100/100b. Connect the other end of the cable to
any available SFP port on the Fibre Channel switch.
5. Connect one end of the orange Fibre Channel cable to any
available port on the Fibre Channel switch. Connect the other end
of the orange Fibre Channel cable to any available FP port on the
top HSV controller.
6. Connect one end of the orange Fibre Channel cable to any
available port on the Fibre Channel switch. Connect the other end
of the cable to any available FP port on the bottom HSV controller.
7. Set the HSV controller ports to Fabric Topology.SeetheHP
StorageWorks EVA iSCSI connectivity user guide for more
information. Proceed to Step 5. Connect the mpx100 to an IP
switch.
