SAN Design

Speaking of things SAN, I have just redone a layout for a dual fabric system. This is to make the fabric a lot more "fair" than it previously was, and to make it a lot more maintainable too. Previously, there were three independent fabrics in the layout, with one switch in each fabric. I have added a switch so there are now two fabrics with two switches each. This has made it a lot more fair.

Now I just need to find the GBICs to run the additional fibre and we will be set to go.
