I'm in the process of replacing a FAS31xx 4 node cluster with FAS80xx 2 node. 

My question is related to the intracluster switches can they be used for more than 1 cluster connected to the same switches?

I would like to avoid a switchless configuration, so that expansion is easier in the future. Also the procees of switching back from a switched cluster to a switchless cluster after the controllers swap.

 

Thanks

thanks for the reply, the official answer is switches are dedicated to clusters, so the answer is no.
