Multipathing is usually handled through the vendor specific software, PowerPath for EMC, not sure the other SAN vendors.<br />
<br />
Are you looking for a broad definition of information, or for a specific guide to a specific type of SAN?<br />

Do you have hardware already that you are trying to understand, or are you in the proces of evaluating hardware for use on a project?<br />
<br />
Why don't you tell us what you are trying to achieve?

Hi Guys<br />
<br />
Sorry for not being clear at all. I do apologize. &nbsp;I am looking for information on any typical SAN itself. Something that I can use to make reference to on how it all works. eg zoning, setting up access to LUNS. In addition I was looking for lots of information for multipathing on Linux. Any good resources that you guys recommend would be really beneficial.<br />
<br />
Thanks<br />

Hi Guys<br />
<br />
I am wondering if you guys can point me to some good resources on fibre channel networking and multipathing on linux. In addition I would appreciated any information on how I can get up to speed with SAN technologies, zoning etc.<br />
<br />
Any feedback would be highly appreciated.<br />

Fibre Channel Networking and multipathing on Linux

Linux is a UNIX-like open source operating system with hundreds of distinct distributions, including: Fedora, openSUSE, Ubuntu, Debian, Slackware, Gentoo, CentOS, and Arch Linux. Linux is generally associated with web and database servers, but has become popular in many niche industries and applications.

Linux

Computer data storage, often called storage or memory, is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media used to retain digital data. In addition to local storage devices like CD and DVD readers, hard drives and flash drives, solid state drives can hold enormous amounts of data in a very small device. Cloud services and other new forms of remote storage also add to the capacity of devices and their ability to access more data without building additional data storage into a device.

Storage

Hardware includes cell phones and other digital living devices, tablets, computers, servers, peripherals and components, printers and scanners, gaming consoles, networking hardware such as routers, hubs, switches and modems, storage devices and security equipment such as firewalls and other appliances.
