I already have a couple of Fibre Channel Cards I took out of a server, and I've been offered a HP StorageWorks AD542B Storage Array Shelf complete with drives, for what I consider a fair price.
The Shelf comes with
PSU
FCAL A AD623C IO Board
FCAL B AD624C IO Board
AD625B Controller
Obviously I will need some cables.
I have never used fibre channel before, and it does seem to be abit of a black art. Does anybody know if this lost going to work together, what I need to check etc, before I waste any money.
And is it going to be possible for me to connect this lot up to my OpenMediaVault box, and get them to play ball?
