The two risks that catch IT teams off guard are fabric-level failures that take out multiple hosts at once and configuration drift across LUNs, zoning, and access policies as the environment grows.

Strong change control, redundant fabrics, and tested recovery procedures are non-negotiable in any production SAN deployment.
