I Have HPE MSA 2060 LFF ISCSI , But my servers network and my switch are all FC.
- Is there a way to convert this storage to FC ?
- If I get a separate FC controller and replace it on the storage, will it be supported?
Please guide me
Solved! Go to Solution.

Solutionyes you can switch the system to FC by replacing the controller module. Pick your controller module from the options starting on page 17 here: https://support.hpe.com/hpesc/public/docDisplay?docId=a00128579en_us&docLocale=en_US
the exact part numbers are here: https://support.hpe.com/hpesc/public/docDisplay?docId=a00094629enw&docLocale=en_US

Re: Convert MSA 2060 ISCSI TO FC
In the HP document, because the controller and storage are supplied together, I did not find anything about the part number of the controller.
If I replace any other controller from the 2060 model regardless of FC or ISCSI, LFF or SFF, will it work?

Re: Convert MSA 2060 ISCSI TO FC
MSA is "modular storage architecture" so it better work
Anyway jokes aside, yes, the controller type can be swapped as long as you don't mix-and-match. Whether it is cost efficient or not is a different issue.
