switch if the preferred type is configured. The non-principal switch will isolate the upstream link and refuse other domain IDs assigned by the principal switch if the static type is configured. HP recommends that you configure domain IDs of the same type for all switches in a VSAN. To configure a domain ID for a switch: Step Command Remarks 1. Enter system view. system-view N/A 2. Enter VSAN view. vsan vsan-id N/A 3. Configure a domain ID for domain-id domain-id { preferred | By default, the domain ID of a switch is the switch. static } 0 and is of the preferred type. Configuring the mapping between the N_Port WWN and the FC address If you bind the WWN of an N_Port to an FC address, when the N_Port requests an FC address, the switch assigns the bound FC address to it. The WWN of an N_Port can be bound to only one FC address, and vice versa. The N-Port here indicates an N_Port on a node or an NP_Port on an NPV switch. To bind the WWN of an N_Port to an FC address: Step 1. Enter system view. 2. Enter VSAN view. Command system-view vsan vsan-id 3. Bind the WWN of an wwn wwn-value area-port-id N_Port to an FC address. area-port-id-value Remarks N/A N/A By default, no binding is configured. If the N_Port has been assigned another FC address or the FC address has been assigned to another N_Port, the binding is not allowed. Configuring the fabric timers The fabric operation involves the following timers: • Distributed service timeout period • Error detection timeout period • Resource allocation timeout period For more information about these timers, see FC-related protocols and standards. You can configure fabric timers by using one of the following ways: • Configure the timers in system view, and the configuration takes effect for all VSANs. 27
