Parameter Description
identifier WWID of the HBA host port. You must
put quotation marks (" ") around the
WWID.
userLabel Name to give the new HBA host port. You

host Name of the host for which you are

NOTE: An HBA host port is a physical
connection on a host adapter that resides
within a host system. An HBA host port
provides host access to the virtual disks in
a storage array. If the host bus adapter has
only one physical connection (one host
port), the terms host port and host bus
adapter are synonymous.
interfaceType The identifier for the type of interface for
the host port.
Yo u mu s t e n t e r SAS. If you do not enter
SAS, the command attempts to use an
invalid type of interface. A SAS selection
requires an 8-byte WWID.
