Default Question on Compaq StorageWorks RAID Array 4100

There are lots of threads in this group that discuss using those RA4x00
devices.

You cannot connect this to an ethernet switch to get a NAS.

You must connect this to a host server, preferrably using a StorageWorks
FCAL adapter (32 or 64bit). You will nee fibre cable with SC connectors on
each side. You can have more than 1 system connected to it if you use a FCAL
hub or switch between the Chassis and your hosts.

The array controller is configured using the conventional ACU from the
smartstart CD, or from within a supported OS.

Ah so. Thanks, that clears that up - I won't be playing with one of
those then :0
