After the completion of this module
delegates will be able to:

In a Virtual Server
environment, servers
require access to storage
just as if they were a
normal physical server
With the introduction of
NPIV a physical server is
able to provide
independent paths to a
storage array for separate
virtual servers. Enabling a
single Fibre Channel Port to
appear as multiple single
ports
Because the virtual port
has the same
characteristics of an N_Port
it isCompany,
capable
of performing

NPIV Zoning
Perform PWWN zoning on the switch for each
virtual machine and the storage array
Perform LUN masking (SSP) on the Storage Array
for each virtual server to isolate the disk from
other virtual instances.
