Hi
It differs... Also, if you visit the 3584 site, you can see that the Qlogic
2200 adapter is certified to be used with the 3584. This means no problems
when doing SCSI >> WWN translation.

I thought that IBM oem'd the EMULEX cards.

Hi
Perhaps I misunderstood you, but the Qlogic adapters are oem:ed by IBM,
so
if you buy a IBM FC adapter, this is normally a Qlogic adapter.
And the FC attached 3584 uses SCSI address translation against WWN.
We've
got this running today on AIX, and if you do a lsdev -C|grep rmt, you
will
get the scsi addresses for each drive. Same with the library(/dev/smcX).
This should mean that the Qlogic adapter can handle SCSI >> WWN
translation.

Hi all!
I believe I heard about an issue with Qlogic adapters and SCSI address
assignments. For Qlogic adapters you cannot define fixed SCSI address
assignment (fixed relation between SCSI LUN's and FC World Wide Name).
So
if
another FC device is added to the host, your SCSI assignments are messed
up.

We use the QLA2200F PCI card without any problems. I cannot imagine why
there would be a problem with this. I believe the same driver is used
for
both. The real issue is SBUS is going to be MUCH slower than the PCI
card
(25mhz vs 66mhz). Yes the IO slot board for PCI is about 10K and you
may
not have room for it, but it is really worth the difference in
performance
when you start running both FC disk and tape.

All,
Bringing up a Sun Solaris E6000 as a TSM Server and would like to use
Qlogic's QLA2202FS Sbus Fibre Channel cards to connect to 3590-E1A.
IBM's
website only mentions support for QLA2200F (PCI). We can get Emulex
LP8000S
cards but these are single port whereas the Qlogic cards are available
in
dual port configurations. Has anyone out there been down this road?
