I see that a tape library like TS3310 with "path failover" feature can be
configured to utilize more than on HBA "on hosts side". The problem is that
each tape drive in TS3310 has its own SAN port and if this SFP or its cable
fails, the connection to this drive is lost no matter how many HBAs are
configured in hosts side.
Do I need to define virtual tapes to eliminate this SPOF? If yes, is this
configuration transparent from TSM server point of view?
