The DS6000 system provides a variety of host attachments so that you can consolidate storage capacity and workloads for open-systems hosts and IBM System z™ hosts. It can be configured for fibre-channel adapters, for support of the Fibre-Channel Protocol (FCP) and FICON.
For more information about host attachments, see the interoperability matrix at: ibm.com/servers/storage/disk/ds6000/interop.html.
