Make sure that your minihub speed is set to correspond with your HBA and

switch speed. Also make sure you run your fibre channel cables to separate

controllers on the storage system. You may run FC cables through a switch or

directly to the controllers. The following photograph shows the typical FlexLine

fibre channel host inputs.

Note: SFP Transceivers are required to make all host interface connections.
