Use this wizard to create, edit, and delete Fault Domains.
When not in Virtual Port Mode (legacy mode), Fault Domains associate Primary and Reserved Front End ports to each other. Primary and Reserved ports within a single Fault Domain identify how traffic will be moved in the event of a failover or revert.
In Virtual Port Mode, Front End Physical Ports are configured within a Fault Domain. This Fault Domain identifies the failover set where Virtual Ports can be moved to maintain connectivity when a port or controller fails. Physical Ports do not fail over.
In Virtual Port Mode, a Control Port is created for each iSCSI Fault Domain. iSCSI Servers connect to the Compellent Storage Center via the Control Port. The Control Port redirects a connection to the appropriate Virtual Port.
