    hpux-admins:

    We use ESN Manager to zone and add Volume Access to our HP 9000 UNIX
    Servers, Connectrix ED1032 switch, and EMC Symmetrix 8430.

    We are looking at an STK L80 Tape Silo (?).

    The STK salesman, who is actually a 3rd party VAR, tells us that the L80
    runs switched fabric and can be hooked up directly to the Connectrix and
    zoned like we zone our EMC today.

    I don't recall seeing any HP-UX server to EMC Connectrix to STK L80 options
    in ESN Mgr!

    How does one connect this up and use it?

    My previous experience with STK tape libraries is that they were FC-AL and
    ran on completely seperate HP-UX HBAs to completely seperate Brocade
    switches to the STK library. No mixing.
