on the host, the createhost <host_name> command creates a host without any path
information. If the Host Explorer agent is running on the host, the createhost <host_name>
command automatically creates a host with the path information received from the Host Explorer
agent.
The host path information is required to display the device name. If the path information is not
reported from the host to the system, then the device name appears as Unknown.
Issue the createhost <host_name> command, where <host_name> is the user-designated
name of the host being defined.

You can modify the following parameters and functions of an existing host:
• Change the host’s name.
• Add or remove WWNs or iSCSI Names.
• Add or remove iSCSI CHAP authentication information.

Reference and the HP 3PAR CLI Help.

1. Determine the HBA’s iSCSI Name by issuing the showport -iscsiname command.
2. Issue the createhost -add -iscsi <host_name> <iSCSI_name> command, where:
