Chapter 19. Fibre Channel and iSCSI Configuration and Status
The following sections describe the XIV Command Line Interface (XCLI) for fibre
channel port configuration.
The sections are listed as follows:
v fc_connectivity_list(Discovers FC hosts and targets on the FC network.)
v fc_port_config(Configures FC ports.)
v fc_port_list(Lists the status and configuration of the system's FC ports.)
v fc_port_reset(Resets an FC port.)
v host_connectivity_list(Lists FC and iSCSI-level connectivity to a pre-defined
host. )
Discovering FC Hosts
Discovers FC hosts and targets on the FC network.
fc_connectivity_list [ role=<dual|initiator|target> ] [ wwpn=WWPN ]
[ module=ModuleNumber | fc_port=ComponentId ]
Parameters:
Name Type Description Mandatory Default
role Enumeration Specifies whether
the discovery is for
initiators or
targets.
N list all - targets
and/or initiators.
wwpn N/A Limits the output
only to this
specific address.
N All addresses
module N/A Limits the output
to only enable
connectivity to this
module.
N All modules
fc_port N/A Limits the output
to this specific XIV
port.
N All ports
This command lists FC hosts on the network.
type=initiator detects initiators on the network. When type=initiator, the
non-logged-in option can only be used to debug hosts that are on the network, but
that did not log in.
type=target detects targets. When type=target, the non-logged-in option can only
be used to debug targets that rejected the XIV login. This command creates an
error for a target-only port to list targets, or for an initiator-only port to list
initiators. Each output line contains the following information:
v Component ID (of the module)
v XIV port number (within the module)
v WWPN
