gateway address
Optional. For iSCSI, the port gateway address.
ip address
Optional. For iSCSI, the port IP address. Ensure that each iSCSI host port in the storage system is
assigned a different IP address.
iscsi-ip-version ipv4|ipv6
Specifies whether to use IP version 4 (IPv4) or 6 (IPv6) for addressing controller iSCSI ports.
•
ipv4: Lets you specify addresses in dot-decimal format, where the four octets of the address use
decimal values without leading zeroes and the octets are separated by a period; for example,
10.132.2.205. This option is the default.
•
ipv6: Lets you specify addresses using eight groups of four hexadecimal digits, where the
groups are separated by a colon. All groups must be specified. For example,
0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0A90:3442.
netmask address
Optional. For iSCSI, the port netmask address.
noprompt
Optional in console format; required for XML API format. Suppresses the confirmation prompt, which
requires a yes or no response. Specifying this parameter allows the command to proceed without
user interaction.
ports ports|all
Optional. Specific host port numbers or all ports. For port syntax, see
prompt yes|no|expert
Optional. Specifies an automatic response to the confirmation prompt:
•
yes: Allow the command to proceed.
•
no: Cancel the command.
•
expert: Allow the command to proceed.
If this parameter is omitted, you must manually reply to the prompt.
speed 2g|4g|8g|auto
Optional. For FC, sets a forced link speed in Gbit/sec or lets the speed be auto-negotiated (auto).
Because a speed mismatch prevents communication between the port and host, set a speed only if
you need to force the port to use a known speed for testing, or you need to specify a mutually
supported speed for more than two FC devices connected in an arbitrated loop.
Example On a system with FC ports, set the link speed to 8 Gbit/sec for ports A1 and B1:
# set host-parameters speed 8g ports a1,b1
WARNING: This change will take effect immediately. Changes may affect access to
data. Are you sure? yes
Success: Command completed successfully. - The host parameters were changed
successfully
On a system with FC ports, set controller A ports to request loop ID 14 and controller B ports to use
soft target addressing, and suppress the confirmation prompt:
# set host-parameters fibre-loop-id 14,soft noprompt
Info: Changes to FC loop ids will not take effect until the affected Storage
Controller is restarted.
Success: Command completed successfully. - The host parameters were changed
successfully
