Checking links to a remote system

Page 87 highlights

Checking links to a remote system After a remote system has been added, you can check the connectivity between host ports in the local system and the remote system. A host port in the local system can only link to other host ports with the same host interface, such as Fibre Channel (FC), in a remote system. When you check links, this panel will show this information for each linked host port in the local system: • The link type • The ID of the port in the local system • The ID of each accessible port in the remote system If a host port is not shown then either: • It is not linked • Its link type is not supported by both systems To check links to a remote system 1.

Checking links to a remote system
After a remote system has been added, you can check the connectivity between host ports in the local
system and the remote system. A host port in the local system can only link to other host ports with the same
host interface, such as Fibre Channel (FC), in a remote system. When you check links, this panel will show
this information for each linked host port in the local system:
The link type
The ID of the port in the local system
The ID of each accessible port in the remote system
If a host port is not shown then either:
It is not linked
Its link type is not supported by both systems
To check links to a remote system
1.
In the Configuration View panel, right-click a remote system and select
Tools > Check Remote System

Checking links in the local system
You can check the connectivity of host ports between controllers in the local system. A host port can only
link to other ports with the same host interface, such as Fibre Channel (FC). When you check links, this
panel will show this information for each linked host port in both controllers:
The link type
The port ID
The ID of each linked port in the local system
To check links in the local system
1.
In the Configuration View panel, right-click the local system and select
Tools > Check Local System Link
