Galaxy GHDX2-2430S/R-24F4D Installation and Hardware Reference Manual
4-18 Subsystem Connection and Operation
4.4.3 Hub Disabled and Switched Fabric Connection
With disabled hub, the individual host channels from individual RAID
controllers are connected to two separate switched fabric networks. This can
apply to applications using the RAID subsystem as a common storage pool
where component and path redundancy is also important.
For simplicity reason, only two servers are shown in the diagram. More cable
links can be used to connect more application servers within a switched fabric.
