There is no SWITCH option necessary. And there is no need at all to tell the host something about your switch. You just have to connect your FCP adapter card to your FCP switch. Just make sure your zoning is set up properly at switch side. An example of a working IOCP could be found here (page 8): http://linuxvm.org/present/SHARE107/S9259vs.pdf Btw. zfcp also supports point-to-point connections without any switch involvement. But we do not recommend to use FCP p2p in production. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
