Configuring FC I/O Blade

Ports 5

When FC I/O blades are installed, administrators can configure FC I/O

blade port parameters.

Each FC I/O blade has six ports. Ports 1 and 2 are always target ports and

are configurable. Ports 3 through 6 are always initiator ports and are not

configurable. For information on viewing the current configured settings

for all I/O blade ports, see Viewing FC I/O Blade Port Information on

page 197.

Details on configuring FC I/O blade ports include:

• The Setup - I/O Blade Port Configuration screen lists all I/O blades

found in the library. The screen lists the following information for

each I/O blade: location in the library, World Wide Node Name

(WWNN), status, and ports. You can select the I/O blade target port

(1 or 2) you want to configure and proceed to the next screen. For the

target port you selected, the screen displays the World Wide Port

Number (WWPN).

• For the selected target port (ports 1 and 2), you can configure the

following parameters:

• Loop ID — Loop IDs can be set to Auto or a hard value from 0

through 125. Selecting Auto automatically selects a unique loop

ID. Some FC host operating systems require hard loop ID

settings. The default setting is Auto.

• Speed — The interface speed can be set to Auto, 1 Gb/s, 2 Gb/s, or

4 Gb/s. Selecting Auto automatically sets the interface speed. The

default setting is Auto.

• Frame Size — Frame size can be set to 512, 1024, or 2048. The

default setting for ports 1 and 2 is 2048. Your FC host might

require a different setting.

• Connection — The connection mode for the ports can be set to

Loop, Loop Preferred, or Point to Point. The default setting is Loop

Preferred

Note: FC I/O blade menu commands are available for use only

when FC I/O blades are installed in the library.
