Add a hard drive to Fibre Channel in VM

There are two ways to achieve direct access to FlashArray from a VM in Hyper-V: use iSCSI or use the virtual fiber channel capabilities built into Hyper-V. To configure this, there are two tasks: configure the Virtual SAN at the host layer and then ensure that the VM has the. Hyper-V provides Fibre Channel ports within guest operating systems (OSes) that let you connect to Fibre Channel directly from your virtual machines (VMs). Also, verify that your storage array is Fibre Channel capable and compatible with VMware.

6th generation Fibre Channel technology includes

When the technology was originally devised, it ran over optical fiber cables only and, as such, was called "Fiber Channel". In order to avoid confusion and to create a unique name, the industry decided to change the spelling and use the fibre for the name of the standard. Gen 6 Fibre Channel is the next generation of Fibre Channel designed to address performance, reliability, and scalability requirements for hyper-scale virtualization, SSD storage technology, and new data center architectures. The main catalyst for its continued use and relevance is the growth of cost-effective flash-based storage coupled with the availability of: 32 gigabit (Gb) Gen6 transceivers; 32 Gb Fibre Channel (GFC), 128 GFC and other technologies; and higher-capability multimode optical fiber cabling. Fibre Channel (FC) is a high-speed data transfer protocol providing in-order, lossless delivery of raw block data. Demartek gained early access to the newest Gen 6 products from Emulex and Brocade®, and subjected.
