Solving SAN Problems

Xserve RAID LUNs Aren’t Accessible Over Fibre Channel

 If you are using a Vixel 355 Fibre Channel switch, connect the Xserve RAID systems to

an FL (arbitrated loop) port on the switch.

 Try restarting the computer that doesn’t see the LUNs.
 Check the configuration of the Fibre Channel switch to be sure the SAN components

are in the same Fibre Channel zone.
