3.2 Fibre Channel SAN Topology

In the topology shown in Figure 2, the Host Partition’s HBAs are directly connected to a Violin Target via a

Fiber Channel SAN. To achieve optimal high availability, we need to make sure zone to each HBA port to each

gateway (MG) for High Availability. Multiple Hosts can be attached to the Violin Array in this configuration. The

below diagram shows one host attached to the fabric. This topology assumes use of full partitions or fractional

partitions without using any kind of virtualization.

3.3 FC SAN Topology with Dual VIO Partitions

The topology shown on the next page shows a LPAR connected via 2 VIO Partitions to Violin Storage.
