Switch zoning limitations for the IBM ESS

Consider the following limitations when you zone the IBMEnterprise Storage Server (ESS) to the Lenovo Storage V series.

To avoid a single point of failure on the IBM ESS, you must have a minimum of two SAN connections from two separate adapter bays. The maximum number of IBM ESS SAN connections in the Lenovo Storage V series switch zone is 16.
Note: The IBM ESS provides ESCON, FICON and Ultra SCSI connectivity; however, only a 1 or 2 Gb Fibre Channel SAN attachment is supported by the Lenovo Storage V series.
