An example configuration that requires the Node Name on each Fibre Channel
port to be different is where the host has two Host Bus Adapters (HBAs)
installed for redundancy. In this configuration, each HBA is connected to a
different Fibre Channel port on the SNC 5100. Fail-over software on the host
defines one of the HBAs as the primary connection and the other HBA as a
spare. If the primary HBA should fail, the fail-over software routes data
transfers to the SNC 5100 through the spare HBA.

If you change the mode, you must reboot the SNC 5100 for new setting to take
effect.
