You install an FC HBA utility so you can
view the worldwide port name (WWPN) of each host port. Additionally,
you can use the HBA utility to change any settings recommended in
the Interoperability Matrix document for the supported configuration.
Guidelines for HBA utilities:
- Most HBA vendors offer
an HBA utility. You will need the correct version of HBA for your
host operating system and CPU. Examples of FC HBA utilities include:
- Emulex OneCommand Manager for Emulex HBAs
- QLogic QConverge Console for QLogic HBAs
- Host I/O ports might
automatically register if the host context agent is installed.
- Download
the appropriate utility from your HBA vendor's web site.
- Install
the utility.
- Select
the appropriate settings in the HBA utility.
Appropriate settings for your configuration are listed in
the Interoperability Matrix document. Go to DE Series Product Support Site, click on the Documentation tab, and look for the Interoperability
Matrix document.
