Question 4: Configuring onboard adapters
for initiator mode
Configure
the onboard adapters for initiator mode to connect the adapters to back-end
disk shelves.
Steps
- If you have already
connected the port to a switch or fabric, take it offline by entering the
following command: fcp config adapter down
adapter is the port number. You can specify more than one
port.
Example
fcp config 0c 0d down
Ports 0c and 0d are taken offline.
Note: If the adapter does not go
offline, you can also remove the cable from the appropriate adapter port on the
system.
- Set the onboard ports to
operate in initiator mode by entering the following command: fcadmin config -t
initiator adapter
adapter is the port number. You can specify more than one
port.
Example
fcadmin config -t
initiator 0c 0d
Ports 0c and 0d are set to initiator mode.
- Reboot each system in the HA
pair by entering the following command: reboot
- Verify that the FC ports are
online and configured in the correct state for your configuration by
entering the following command: fcadmin config
Example
fcadmin config
Local
Adapter Type State Status
---------------------------------------------------
0a initiator CONFIGURED online
0b initiator CONFIGURED online
0c target CONFIGURED online
0d target CONFIGURED online
Note: The available Local State values are CONFIGURED,
PENDING, and UNCONFIGURED. Refer to the fcadmin MAN page for detailed
descriptions of each value.
The preceding output displays for a four-port SAN configuration.iguring onboard adapters
