To transmit the storage traffic of the SANs in VSAN 100, configure the interfaces connecting the four FCF
switches to the SANs to allow VSAN 100.
To transmit the storage traffic of VSAN 100 within VLAN 4001, map VLAN 4001 to VSAN 100.
To avoid physical loops in the LAN, enable STP on the Ethernet interfaces connecting Switch A and
Switch B to the LAN and the server. To prevent STP from blocking the interfaces that are responsible for
forwarding storage traffic on Switch A and Switch B, disable STP on the interfaces connecting the four
FCF switches.
For the server to access the resources in the disk device, configure the members in the default zone to
access each other.
To increase the bandwidth for the link between Switch A and Switch C and implement link backup and
load sharing, configure Ethernet link aggregation group 1.
To increase the bandwidth for the link between Switch B and Switch D and implement link backup and
load sharing, configure Ethernet link aggregation group 2.
Configuration restrictions and guidelines
When the SANs are complex, H3C recommends that you build the fabric dynamically and use FSPF for
FC routing.
Configuration procedures
Configuring Switch A
1.
Configure the switch to operate in advanced mode, save the configuration, and reboot the switch.
(Skip this step if the switch is operating in advanced mode.)
[SwitchA] system-working-mode advance
Do you want to change the system working mode? [Y/N]:y
The system working mode is changed, please save the configuration and reboot the system
to make it effective.
[SwitchA] save
The current configuration will be written to the device. Are you sure? [Y/N]:y
Please input the file name(*.cfg)[flash:/startup.cfg]
(To leave the existing filename unchanged, press the enter key):
Validating file. Please wait...
Saved the current configuration to mainboard device successfully.
Slot 1:
Save next configuration file successfully.
[SwitchA] quit
Start to check configuration with next startup configuration file, please
wait.........DONE!
Current configuration will be lost after the reboot, save current configuration?
[Y/N]:y
Please input the file name(*.cfg)[flash:/startup.cfg]
(To leave the existing filename unchanged, press the enter key):
flash:/startup.cfg exists, overwrite? [Y/N]:y
