Configuring the Fibre Channel ports
18
Configure the Fibre Channel ports on the disk array using Command View
(shown) or the Fibre Parameter window in LUN Configuration Manager.
Select the settings for each port based onthe device to which the port is
connected (fabric switch or point-to-point connection). Use switch zoning
if you connect different types of hosts to the array through the same switch.
Fibre Address
In fabric environments, the port addresses are assigned automatically. In
arbitrated loop environments, set the port addresses by selecting a unique
arbitrated loop physical address (AL-PA) or loop ID for each port.
