Fabric-based boot LUN discovery 4 bcu boot --blunZone -c -p -r -l where: c cfg p port_WWN r rport_WWN l lun_id | lun# Specifies boot LUN (use -c BLUN). The hexadecimal WWN of the adapter port connecting to the boot LUN. For example, 10:00:00:05:1e:41:9a:cb. The hexadecimal WWN of the remote storage target's port. For example, 50:00:00:05:1e:41:9a:ca. The hexadecimal LUN identification. You can provide this as a hexadecimal one-Byte value or an eight-Byte value (four-level LUN addressing). For example, an eight-Byte value could be 09AABBCCDDEEFF00. NOTE Enter boot --blunZone without operands to display the command format. For example, enter the following: bcu boot --blunZone -c BLUN -p 10:00:00:05:1e:41:9a:cb -r 50:00:00:05:1e:41:9a:ca -l 09AABBCCDDEEFF00 The command output will contain the proper encoding and be in the exact format for the FOS OS zoneCreate command. 3. Configure the zone on the switch using the Fabric OS zoneCreate command. Use the displayed output from the BCU boot --blunZone command as the zonename and member operands: zonecreate "zonename", "member[; member...]" For example, if the output from boot --blunZone is the following, you simply enter this for the zoneCreate command operands on the switch. "BFA_100000051E419ACB_BLUN","00:00:00:00:50:00:00:05; 00:00:00:01:1e:41:9a:ca; 00:00:00:02:DD:EE:FF:00; 00:00:00:03:09:AA:BB:CC" 4. Enter the FOS OS cfgSave command on the switch to save the zone configuration. NOTE The zone created is only an entity to store boot LUN data. There is no zone enforcement by the fabric. You must create a separate zone containing the adapter port and storage target port to ensure that the adapter port is able to see the target.

Fabric-based boot LUN discovery
4
bcu boot --blunZone -c <cfg> -p <port_wwn> -r <rport_wwn> -l <lun_id | lun#>
where:
c cfg
Specifies boot LUN (use -c BLUN).
p port_WWN
The hexadecimal WWN of the adapter port connecting to the boot LUN. For
example, 10:00:00:05:1e:41:9a:cb.
r rport_WWN
The hexadecimal WWN of the remote storage target’s port. For example,
50:00:00:05:1e:41:9a:ca.
l lun_id | lun#
The hexadecimal LUN identification. You can provide this as a hexadecimal
one-Byte value or an eight-Byte value (four-level LUN addressing). For
example, an eight-Byte value could be 09AABBCCDDEEFF00.
NOTE
Enter
boot --blunZone
without operands to display the command format.
For example, enter the following:
bcu boot --blunZone -c BLUN -p 10:00:00:05:1e:41:9a:cb -r
50:00:00:05:1e:41:9a:ca -l 09AABBCCDDEEFF00
The command output will contain the proper encoding and be in the exact format for the FOS
OS
zoneCreate
command.
3.
Configure the zone on the switch using the Fabric OS
zoneCreate
command. Use the displayed
output from the BCU
boot --blunZone
command as the zonename and member operands:
zonecreate "zonename", "member[; member...]"
For example, if the output from
boot --blunZone
is the following, you simply enter this for the
zoneCreate
command operands on the switch.
"BFA_100000051E419ACB_BLUN","00:00:00:00:50:00:00:05;
00:00:00:01:1e:41:9a:ca; 00:00:00:02:DD:EE:FF:00; 00:00:00:03:09:AA:BB:CC"
4.
Enter the FOS OS
cfgSave
command on the switch to save the zone configuration.
NOTE
The zone created is only an entity to store boot LUN data. There is no zone enforcement by the fabric.
You must create a separate zone containing the adapter port and storage target port to ensure that
the adapter port is able to see the target.
Configuring fabric-based boot LUN discovery (Cisco fabrics)
For CISCO fabrics, zones are configured within VSANs. Before you begin, determine the VSAN
configured in a current fabric for which you want to configure a zone to include boot LUN
information. Also, you must enable enterprise zoning. Note that zone information must always be
identical for all switches in the fabric.
To store the boot LUN information in the fabric zone database, you must use the
zone name
and
member
commands while in switch configuration mode.
The “zone name” command will be “BFA_[adapter port WWN]_BLUN.” For example, if the
adapter PWWN is 01:00:05:1E:01:02:03:04, the zone name will be the following.
BFA_0100051E01020304_BLUN
