Cabling Your Cluster Hardware
27
Figure 2-10 shows a supported PowerEdge cluster configuration using
redundant Fibre Channel switches and a tape library. In this configuration,
each of the cluster nodes can access the tape library to provide backup for
your local disk resources, as well as your cluster disk resources. Using this
configuration allows you to add more servers and storage systems in the
future, if needed.
NOTE:
While tape libraries can be connected to multiple fabrics, they do not
provide path failover.
