Mix tape and disk on the same HBA port
Author Message
Post Mix tape and disk on the same HBA port 
I usually separate disk and tape but now I have a customer with a very
small system and another two port HBA for a small Power-server does
not come cheap.

So I am wondering if this "rule" still holds true or is it something
for Mythbusters to take care of? What are the consequences of mixing
them?

If true what about NPIV? Will tape and disk on different virtual
adapters attached to the same HBA port still break the rule?

Rule still holds but for very small env just do both over same ports. Pretty small change of hitting troubles with low utilization of the fabric.

Virtual adapters don't change physical usage.

Karel
