The Interoperability of Storage Protocols and Topologies


Description

Universal storage connectivity for your existing servers and storage devices. The Data Transport Processor (DTP) routes disk and tape SCSI commands, and the associated block data transfers, between servers and storage devices that have SCSI, FibreChannel, or TCP/IP (iSCSI) interfaces. The DTP can be cabled to a server's SCSI adapter (as a Target), and to SCSI Disk Arrays or Tape Libraries (as an Initiator), AND to a FibreChannel HBA (point-to-point), or to a FC-Arbitrated Loop, or to a FC switch, AND to an Ethernet NIC, or switch. That is, the DTP allows you to connect ANY of your existing servers, whether they are SCSI-cabled, FibreChannel-cabled, or Ethernet-cabled (iSCSI) to ANY of your existing SCSI-command disk and tape devices, whether SCSI-cabled or FibreChannel-cabled or Ethernet-cabled (iSCSI).
