We wont be able to preserve your existing data as our volume manager will need to format it to be used as a new unit. Also you dont need to load any drivers once you set the HBA in the GUI in Setup > Fiber Channel to Initiator mode.

- if we reinstall DSS, will previous data be preserved?
- do you mean LUN added/deleted will be recognised without restarting if DSS is attached to a san box.

Data will be preserved if DSS has this as its own volume, settings and config should be saved from the GUI in Maint. > Misc. and take all 4 options.
If you have added a FC volume using our FC Initiator then you see it in our Unit manager without a restart.

i want to connect this product to DSS via FC

do you think the FC initiator will support?

looks more like a self contained unit, with its own software.Originally Posted by aclhkaclhk

i want to use this as direct attached storage to DSS (pls ignore the sw features). i could create 10G iscsi storage server with replication inexpensively. proprietary san servers with these features are very expensive today!
pls advise.

Honestly, I dont know if it will connect or not.
Maybe ask that vendor...... from DSS the FC initiator is nothing special, nothing proprietary.
