FSPM 4 for Windows Overview

The information in this document is for system administrators who want to use the Oracle FS Path Manager (FSPM) software on a SAN host running the Windows Server operating systems on 32-bit, x64, and Itanium-based systems.

This document describes how to install and configure the FSPM for Windows software.
Note: In this document, references to an Oracle FS System, also refer to a Pillar Axiom System unless specifically noted. References to the Oracle FS System Controller, also refer to a Pillar Axiom System Slammer Control Unit unless specifically noted.

This release supports both Fibre Channel (FC) and iSCSI Controller and Slammer ports. You can connect your host to Fibre Channel or iSCSI ports on Controller or Slammer. You can also connect your host through iSCSI-to-FC routers to FC ports on Controller or Slammer.

Note: If you are updating your Pillar Axiom software or Oracle Flash Storage System, complete that update before installing the FSPM software on the SAN host.
