MediaVault 4440 User Manual
SAN software can perform more complex functions, such as giving users different access to
different parts of the arrays, or limiting bandwidth. SAN software typically requires a client
program/license be installed on each client. However, if the number of clients becomes too
great, it is recommended that a dedicated server also be used to manage the flow of the data.
Example 2
Here is a more complex example, using two hosts, one with a dual-channel host adapter
(attached to ports 1 and 2), the second host computer with a quad-channel host adapter
attached to ports 3 through 6. The Host-Grouped and 1:1 Relational techniques are used.
Host-Grouped
Create four zones
• Zone 1 contains ports 1, 3, and 7
• Zone 2 contains ports 2, 4, and 8
• Zone 3 contains ports 1, 5, and 9
• Zone 4 contains ports 2, 6, and 10
1:1 Relational
Create eight zones:
• Zone 1 contains ports 1 and 7
• Zone 2 contains ports 2 and 8
• Zone 3 contains ports 3 and 7
• Zone 4 contains ports 4 and 8
• Zone 5 contains ports 1 and 9
• Zone 6 contains ports 2 and 10
• Zone 7 contains ports 3 and 9
• Zone 8 contains ports 4 and 10
