Configuration Planning

Tasks

Task 11: Diagram the Planned Configuration

Determine peripheral devices that will connect to each director, and if and where

connectivity should be limited (zoning). These devices may include servers, storage control

devices, and other directors in a multiswitch fabric.

Part of this task may have been performed when the configuration was determined. It

might be helpful to draw the configuration diagram. Indicate distances in the diagram if

necessary. Transfer information from the configuration diagram to the director planning

worksheet provided as part of Task 13: Complete the Planning Worksheet on page 102.
