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. Kindest regards, Eric van Loon KLM Royal Dutch Airlines

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. -----Original Message----- From: Bruce Lowrie [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, February 14, 2002 2:09 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Sun Solaris and Qlogic QLA2202FS (Sbus) and 3590-EIA 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? Bruce E.
