Host Type
Every host port has an associated host type, indicating the operating system installed. The
Host Type button allows you to change this host type. Select the HBA host port in the Host
topology view and click Host Type. The window shows the HBA host port alias, the WWN, the
current host type, and a drop down where you can select the new host type. Select the
appropriate choice and click OK to make the change, Figure 10-11.

10.3 Modify Storage Subsystem
The next section of Figure 10-1 on page 214 is Storage. It contains the following functions to
modify, delete, or manage all kinds of logical drives:
Rename Logical Drives
Delete Logical Drives
Add Free Capacity (Drives)
Change Logical Drive Ownership/Preferred Path
Modify FlashCopy Logical Drives
Manage Logical Drive Copies
Note: You have to change the host type on every host port of the changed host. In
redundant configurations (recommended) you have at least two host ports in one system.
So you have to change the host type of every host port that is installed in this host server.
