February 3, 2003 EMC CLARiiON Open Systems Configuration Guide Backup Configurations (CX2001, CX400, CX600, FC4500, FC4700, FC53002, FC5700) This section describes the topologies that EMC currently supports for backup and restore of EMC CLARiiON storage systems in the configurations described in the previous sections of this document. For supported tape libraries and drives, see the Tape to ESN Connectivity section of the EMC Support Matrix. For definitions of backup terms, see page 144. Backup Configuration Rules Use the following rules when configuring local, LAN-based and private LAN topologies and SAN-connected servers that are backed up by a local, LAN-based or private LAN topology (that is, topologies where the backup data does not flow over the SAN): • Any backup server or client server that connects to EMC CLARiiON storage systems (CX200, CX400, CX600, FC4500, FC4700, FC5300, or FC5700) must adhere to the attach requirements specified in the CLARiiON sections of EMC Support Matrix. • EMC places no restrictions on any backup server or client server that is not connected to EMC CLARiiON storage systems. • Consult the backup software supplier's support matrix for component compatibility (server platform, operating systems, HBAs, tape driver, and tape libraries).
