My somewhat limited experience with SAN's (I've got one with 3 hosts right
now) has shown that it should work fine.

> Hello everyone.

> We have Dell PowerEdge 6650 servers attached to the SAN via Emulex
> LightPulse cards. It's working great.
>
> Now we are setting everything up for a SAN backup using TSM LanFree.
>
> We don't have additional Emulex cards and the management does not want
> to pay extra money for them. But we have Qlogic cards.
>
> We have tested the TSM LanFree backup with a server attached

> Qlogic cards. No problem. Great backup and restore speeds.
>
> Would this be a good idea to mix Emulex and Qlogic cards on a
> production
> system (Emulex continues to work on the regular data, Qlogic will
> provide the path for backups)?
