Rapid EqualLogic Configuration Portal by SIS
The Dell Rapid EqualLogic Configuration Series of documents is intended to assist users in deploying EqualLogic iSCSI SAN solutions. The following documents employ tested and proven, Dell best practices for EqualLogic SAN environments. Use the links in each appropriate section to obtain the latest host, switch, and array configuration guides that pertain to your system (latest revision dates shown in parentheses).
To configure a Windows system a document from every section is needed; a system running VMware requires a document from every section except section 2.
