Simple definition
NVMe over Fibre Channel transports NVMe commands across a compatible Fibre Channel fabric to remote storage.
Purpose and use
NVMe/FC carries NVMe commands over compatible Fibre Channel infrastructure.
How does it work?
Initiators, targets and fabric components must support the transport and required discovery functions.
Example and verification
Verify end-to-end compatibility and paths to presented namespaces.
Points to watch
NVMe/FC is neither FCoE nor NVMe/TCP. Reusing fabric components does not guarantee support without adaptation.
In short
Identify both the command protocol and its transport.
