Hi all,

  I have a question regarding D1000 storage arrays.
  I have 5 of these arrays and two E4500s servers.
  I have a requirement to connect one E4500 to three
D1000 and another E4500 to remaining two D1000.As you
must have guessed these two E4500s will be database
servers and the respective arrays connected to them
would be configured as veritas volumes to be used for
storing oracle data.index files,etc
  Now D1000, have only scsi interfaces and that too
only two of them. So is there anyway at all to connect
more than one D1000 to an E4500 in a daisy chain kind
of configuration at all.
  I am assuming Daisy chain and Hub based
configurations are only possible if storage array has
fibre interfaces like in case of A5200.
  If this is the case what is the best way to fullfil
the aforementioned requirement

Regards,
Hrishi
