Present VV using fiber channel and iscsi at same time

Post by zuwairi14 »

Hi,

I have fiber channel and iscsi connectivity on F400

Can I present VV to the server using fiber channel and iscsi at the same time?

any effect on the server to determine the LUN

If it works the same way as on a V-class then Yes, you can present a volume via both ways at the same time.

I just meant that you are working on an F400 while I have experience only with a V800 (V-class). So my information may not apply to you (but it probably does).

V-Class , T-Class , F-Class if you can do it on a V-Class you can do it on a F-Class.
Same software only a bit different hardware :)

Yes it should work.... I recommend making the FC path the primary and the iSCSI path a failover only... I wouldn't recommend round robin.
