Submission + - Best practices for fiber channel networks?
GaryOlson writes: "White papers and tech docs on fiber channel storage cover the basics such as creating aliases, zones, labeling cables, etc. But what about best practices and methods for nebulous operations like managing zonesets, VSANs, or port channel groups?

The basic architecural design is summarized "The Worldbeam and another design construct, the Empty Computer, go hand in hand." and "Many sorts of information are blended together in the Worldbeam, just as many colors are combined into a beam of white light."
