Help with Fiber Card setup

[telemorgan]

I am trying to setup my Sun V880 server running Solaris 8 to talk to my external SAN via fiber cable. I believe I have one internal fiber card (FC) on the motherboard and another on a PCI card. The PCI card has internal ports as well as a set of external ports on the back of the server. Both the FC on the motherboard and the PCI FC (internal ports) are hooked up to my internal disks. Can I take the external ports on the PCI card and run a fiber cable over to my SAN?


# luxadm -e port
