For FC Interface
a. Retrieve World Wide Port Name (WWPNs) assigned to host bus adapters (FC controllers).
This setup procedure is applicable only when WWN mode (WWPNs of host bus adapters are
used to assign to LUNs to application servers) is set for AccessControl. During the setup, the
WWPNs of the host bus adapters attached to the application servers are retrieved by using
software. It is recommended to make a note of the WWPNs (i.e. checking the host bus adapter
locations at the server extension slots and taking a note of the WWPNs) because they will be
useful for replacement (for checking the host bus adapters location at the server extension slot
and the WWPN) if the host bus adapter fails.
In case the WWPNs of the host bus adapters cannot be retrieved by using software, you may
need to enter the WWPNs manually.
b. Attach the host bus adapters.
Skip this step when host bus adapters have already been attached to the application servers.
Attach the host bus adapters to the application servers by following the user's manuals of the
host bus adapters and the application servers.
c. Install the host bus adapter drivers.
Skip this step when the drivers of the host bus adapters attached to the application servers have
already been installed and set up on the application servers.
Install and set up the drivers by following the setup procedures described in the manuals that
come with the host bus adapter products to be installed on the servers or the information offered
on the Web sites.
