Configuring Your Cluster With SAN Backup

You can provide centralized backup for your clusters by sharing your SAN with multiple clusters, storage systems, and a tape

library.

Figure 5-8

provides an example of cabling the cluster nodes to your storage systems and SAN backup with a tape library.

Enabling Access Control and Creating Storage Groups

Fibre Channel allows multiple clusters and stand-alone systems to share a single storage system. To configure cluster and

server access to a shared Dell | EMC storage system, you must enable Access Control to link the cluster nodes and stand-

alone systems to the storage system and then use Navisphere Manager to create storage groups. When you enable Access

Control and then create storage groups in Navisphere Manager, you are using the Access Logix software.
