Implementing a MetroCluster configuration with both disks and array LUNs
A MetroCluster configuration can consist of both disks and array LUNs if the Data ONTAP systems used in the configuration have the capability of attaching to storage arrays.
Planning a MetroCluster configuration with disks and array LUNs
When planning a MetroCluster configuration with systems using both disks and array LUNs, you need to consider the requirements for using each type of storage in the configuration and the additional guidelines for using both types of storage in a MetroCluster configuration.
Example of a MetroCluster configuration with disks and array LUNs
In a MetroCluster configuration with native disks and array LUNs, you need FC-to-SAS bridges to connect the Data ONTAP systems with the disk shelves through the FC switches. You can connect array LUNs through the FC switches to the Data ONTAP systems.
