In this chapter, we learned about high availability with Fibre Channel SAN. We covered normal failure scenarios, ways to build a redundant SAN network, and the differences and technologies available for Fibre Channel High Availability. We covered the workflow and protocol basics of Fibre Channel and how they affect your environment. We also covered best practices and zoning so that our environment can be made reliable and secure.
In the next chapter, we will cover High Availability for networking, NFS, and iSCSI. We will tackle our failover scenarios and best practices to keep your environment's networking in tip top shape.
