    Can you use both A and B channels to the same switch?

    Good idea but this is a home office install (I do a lot of testing on databases so need the IO a SAN gives) so the redundancy isn't a real issue. Mike

    Can you use both A and B channels to the same switch?

    My SANs have 2 fibre channels each (A and B) currently I am hooking up with only the A channel on each SAN to a Brocade switch and then hooking in with the nodes. My question is, will the brocade recognize that the two channels are from the same device and just use the added bandwidth or will...

    Anyone know how to get SAN management software for Brocade 2250?

    The issue was that with one form of the command to create the Oracle file the file goes to the internal storage on the server, which had only 7 gig available, even though the syntax used was supposed to go to the SAN. Changing hte format of the command corrected the issue.

    Anyone know how to get SAN management software for Brocade 2250?

    I installed the switch and I can see both SANs with all hosts. I decided to just divie up the storage between the boxes instead of using zoning. Now, when I attempt to use Oracle ASM to address the disks from the two 32 bit servers it halts at 7 gigabytes when I try to create a larger file (in...

    Anyone know how to get SAN management software for Brocade 2250?

    Thanks! Now I just need to track down the commands. I have a document from Brocade that talks about this but I don't remember if it has the actual commands.

    Anyone know how to get SAN management software for Brocade 2250?

    Ok, I have the needed DB9 GBICs and the switch. I am looking to assign half of the ports to one zone and half to a second. In the first zone I will place my 8 disk NexStor CR8F fibre channel array and the two 32 bit servers that use it, in the second zone I will place the 18 disk Nexstor 18f...

    Anyone know how to get SAN management software for Brocade 2250?

    I am looking at buying a Brocade 2250 but would need to find the management software for it (I want to set up zones to manage 2 SANs off of it to 4 servers) my questions are: 1. Do I need management software to do this? 2. Can this be done manually through the user interface to the switch...

    SAN Configuration do I really need a switch?

    I have 2 Linux Hosts, and a NexStor CR8F array. The array has 2 channels, A and B with DB9 input and output connectors. If all I want to do is hook the two hosts to the array do I need to put a switch in or can I just connect Host 1 to channel A and Host 2 to channel B? I will be using RAW...
