In a SAN environment, a host system is a computer that is connected to the system through
one of the following: a Fibre Channel interface, serial-attached SCSI (SAS) connections, or
an IP network. To use Fibre Channel or Fibre Channel over Ethernet connections to a storage
area network (SAN), an optional host interface adapter must be installed.You can use several
tools to manage hosts, including the management GUI, the CLI, and specialized utilities for
working with host bus adapters (HBAs).

Host function icon, the Hosts menu opens, providing the following options (Figure 3-58 on
