"fcp" license

Is "fcp" license necessary if I want to add ds14mk2 shelves to fas2050? The interconnects are fibre channel AL, so I'm wondering if I need FCP. I assume I only need FCP if I add FC PCI card to fas2050 for server FC HBA access.

Correct. You do not need fcp when in initiator mode to disk shelves or tape.
