d) Click Add, and use the Add Host Port dialog box to associate a new host port identifier to the host.
The length of the host port identifier name is determined by the host interface technology. FC host port
identifier names must have 16 characters. iSCSI host port identifier names have a maximum of 223
characters. The port must be unique. A port number that has already been configured is not allowed.
e) Click Delete, and use the Delete Host Port dialog box to remove (unassociate) a host port identifier.
The Delete option does not physically remove the host port. This option removes the association
between the host port and the host. Unless you remove the host bus adapter or the iSCSI initiator, the
host port is still recognized by the controller.
f) Click Save to apply your changes to the host port identifier settings.
g) Repeat these steps to add and remove any additional host port identifiers.
5. Reboot the host or perform a rescan so that the host properly discovers the LUNs.
6. Remount volumes or start using block volume.
What to do next
Your host protocol conversion is complete. You can resume normal operations.
Complete iSCSI to FC conversion
If you previously had iSCSI host ports and you converted to FC, you might need to modify your existing
configuration to support FC. The following procedure is only applicable if no FC HIC is present.
About this task
This task applies only if you are converting a storage array that has already been in use.
This task does not apply if you are converting a new storage array that does not yet have hosts and volumes
defined. If you converted the host-port protocol of a new storage array, see Cabling ETERNUS AB/HB Series
hardware to install cables and SFPs. Then, follow the instructions in the
express
configuration, or
VMware express configuration
Procedure
1. Install the HBA utility and determine initiator WWPNs.
2. Zone the switches.
Zoning the switches enables the hosts to connect to the storage and limits the number of paths. You zone
the switches using the management interface of the switches.
3. Update the host definitions in SANtricity System Manager.
a) Select Storage > Hosts.
Linux express
to complete the setup for each protocol.
