Shai, Just to get things right, there is no such thing as a 3390 ot 3990 controller. There are Disk arrays that can have CKD volumes connected by FICON or ESCON, or FBA LUNs connected through Fibre Channel or iSCSI. There is also a plethora of storage that is FBA Fibre Channel only and there is a bunch of network attached filers that manage fibre channel storage.
If you want to write to HDS a storage from a PC connected through Fibre Channel, then all you have to do is mount the LUN on the server and that's it. There's no API to do Fibre Channel IO.
