Bruno, can you expound on this a bit more? I'm the NetWorker expert at
our site, but I can't say I'm a SAN expert yet. We're looking to hook our
SCSI-based STK9710 library with SDLT drives into one of our two fabrics
using a pair of STK SN3250 FC<->SCSI routers. For the forseeable future,
the only thing that would be in that zone would be the host's HBA
and the two SN3250s.
I had been planning on using the QLogic 2300 HBA in the Linux box that
will be our new NetWorker server.
