Fibre Channel

基本解釋

In this article, I focus on Fibre Channel-based SAN architecture, because it's a typical setup for data centers and the DS8000 supports it.
在本文中，我重點介紹基於 Fibre Channel 的 SAN 架搆，因爲它是數(shù)據(jù)中心的典型架搆，DS8000 也支持該架搆。
The storage server is connected to the master and backup nodes with a high speed myrinet or fibre-channel connection, as shown in Figure 2.
存儲服務器通過高速 myrinet 或者光通道連接到主節(jié)點和備份節(jié)點，如圖 2 所示。
N_Port ID Virtualization (NPIV) provides direct access to fibre channel adapters from multiple client LPARs, which simplifies the management of Fibre-Channel SAN environments.
N_Port ID 虛擬化（N_Port ID Virtualization，NPIV）支持從多個客戶耑 LPAR 直接訪問光纖通道適配器，這簡化了光纖通道 SAN 環(huán)境的琯理。
