Installing VLS6800 Cables
1. Connect Fibre Channel cables from your SAN media server to the node Fibre Channel host ports,
starting with Fibre Channel host port 0 and working towards Fibre Channel host port 3 (Figure
34).
Leave the Fibre Channel loopback plug in any unused Fibre Channel host ports. This will prevent
you from receiving Fibre Channel notification alerts, which are generated by the VLS when no
signal is detected at a Fibre Channel host port.
