Hello everybody, I wanted to thank you in advance for any help or clarification.
We just zoned one SAN client to a new 5230 appliance. After zoning was done, we did the following:
- Enable SAN Client Fibre Transport on the Media Server [use FT for backups to this Appliance] and we rebooted the appliance.
When I ran Show FC, it showed the 2 ports I zoned in the appliance (slot5 and slot 6) as Targets (that's what I wanted) and the status is "Fabric".
I tried to run a test backup but it was using the LAN, not the SAN. What am I missing?
Here is the result of the Show command on the appliance:
FC HBA card(s) are configured correctly.
