Two servers connected to an MSA2000fc G2 enclosure Two servers/dual path requires four (4) Fibre Channel cables. MSA2000fc G2 switch-connect configurations The MSA2000fc G2 supports 4 Fibre Channel connections, two per controller, with up to 64 hosts supported. Connect FC cables from controller host ports to switch ports, and from switch ports to data hosts. See the user guide for complete details.
