show hosts Description Shows information about all host entries in the storage system. Host entries are created in two ways: • Host entries are automatically created for hosts that have been discovered; that is, hosts that have sent an inquiry command or a report luns command to the system. Hosts typically do this when they boot up or scan for devices. When the command is received, the system saves the host port information; however, the information is retained after a restart only if you have set a nickname for the host. • Host entries can be manually created, such as for testing purposes. Syntax show hosts Output Host ID Host WWPN or iSCSI node name. Host Name Host nickname. Discovered • Yes: The host was discovered and its entry was automatically created. • No: The host entry was manually created. Mapped Shows whether the host is explicitly mapped to any volumes: • Yes: At least one volume is explicitly mapped to the host. • No: No volumes are explicitly mapped to the host. Profile • Standard: Default profile. • HP-UX: The host uses Flat Space Addressing. Host Type • If the host was discovered and its entry was automatically created, its host-interface type: FC; iSCSI. • If the host entry was manually created: Undefined. Example Show hosts: # show hosts Host ID Host Name Discovered Mapped Profile Host Type 100000A0B8040BAC Yes No Standard FC 100000A0B8040BAD My-host Yes Yes HP-UX FC iqn.1991-05.com.microsoft:myhost.domain Server1 No No Standard iSCSI Success: Command completed successfully.
