Understanding the NetApp MetroCluster Brocade 6510 RCF v1.4

The previous post covered RCF v9.1. This post illustrates the old RCF v1.4 port layout.


RCFs for switches configured as per ONTAP 9.0 and 8.3 port layout
Files for configurations using FibreBridge 7500N bridges using both FC ports (eight-node MetroCluster configurations)

- are the Golden Template Configuration files:
