Collecting backend WWNs

The blade and array Fibre Channel ports must connect to the same switch or
switches. The switch zoning determines which ports can connect to each other.
Note: Zone the switches by World Wide Name (WWN) and not by port.
You can usually get the WWNs of the array ports using a monitor or listing menu of
the Fibre Channel switch administration program.
You can also get the WWNs (also called SP UIDs) for arrays by using Navisphere
Manager as shown in Figure 177. On the main Navisphere Manager page, expand the
tree under the array name. The WWNs for each SP port are listed under Physical >
Enclosure > SPs > SP A and SP B.
