Hi all, Some of our TSM clients send their backup data from their isolated storage network to TSM via LAN. In order to setup LAN-free backup, two switches (IBM B-type) that are about 200 meters apart should connect the two storage islands. SFPs are 8 Gb/s shortwave ones. The problem is that I see no IBM part number indicating such a long FC cable. What is your suggestion? - Should I change ISL SFPs to longwave? - Can I use 200-meter FC cables from HP?
Thanks.
