182 Implementing an Open IBM SAN
In Figure 3-3 we show our target ITSO environment.
Figure 3-3 Initial INRANGE environment
For management purposes we have one dedicated PC server attached to the
director. This management station runs the server portion of the INRANGE
IN-VSN Manager to control all fabrics.
3.2.2 Verifying all prerequisites
Before starting the initial setup, it is important to have performed these steps:
򐂰 Obtain two power supplies for each director, for redundancy reasons.
򐂰 Ensure that you have the capability to attach directors and management
station to ethernet network.
򐂰 Prepare a stable floor ground — one director weighs from 8 to 95 kg.
򐂰 Use the official INRANGE 19” rack, or any 19” racks that meet NSI/EIA
230-standard.
