Servers: Multiple with same or different operating systems. See Fan-Out Rule (page 9), Paths from a Server to an SP (page 10), Clustered Server Configuration Rules (page 14), Failover Configuration Rules (page 15). Storage Systems: 2 CX400, CX600, or FC4700 for remote mirroring. 1 per site per mirror configuration. See Fan-In Rule (page 9). For the failover software supported for a storage system, see Failover Configuration Rules (page 15). Server Connection: 1 to 2 local and remote fabrics. See Storage Area Network (SAN) Configuration Rules (page 9), Port Speed Rules (page 14), and General Switch Topology Rules (page 20). Mirror Connection: SP port 3 (CX600) or SP port 1 (CX400, FC4700) for dedicated point-to-point mirroring. 2 or 4 FC-to-IP devices required for Fibre Channel to IP network connection.
