Hi All,

I'm swapping all custermer solaris hosts from original SAN Brocade/EMC
Symm to Cisc/HDS USP TagmaStore. Now he ask me if it's possible connet,
via direct attach, a Sun Enterprise 6500 with Solaris 8 to the USP using
two old onboard soc+ hba. While storage port configuration should be
fc-al, fabric-off, auto-setting speed, without host storage domain, i'm
not shure about hba conf. Of course, the questions is... It works? Any idea?

At the moment the 2 soc+ are connected to the storage and in the messages
file there aren't errors.

root@/: luxadm -e port
