You can use iSCSI or Fiber connected SANs.

Why go one way over another? Performance is a consideration, ease of install
and maintenance is another.

I am confused! I can build a cluster SQL without the use of an iSCSI? Or
be, barely with a SAN + FC?
In which situation would need to use iSCSI in an environment of cluster SQL?
Thanks!

Maybe.

If you have an iSCSI implementation with multiple paths and multipathing
software, you might get better performance from it.

Russ,
Performance is my main point. Then, I should use the FC + SAN.
Thanks!
