■ For other supported operating systems use the utilities included with their respective host adapter. The Quick Connect Guide downloaded from the internal SPOCK web site should include information on how to locate and use the operating system or host adapter utilities. ■ Most FC switches provide a method for displaying the WWN of the device connected to each switch port. Step 19. Build the Host Port Behavior Table The host port behavior table is used in heterogeneous environments to identify hosts that do not use the controller default host port behavior. If all hosts use the default behavior, skip this step. Note On CommandView SDM 1.05 and later, the GUI can also be used to create the host port behavior table. Refer to the HP StorageWorks CommandView SDM Installation and User Guide or the on-line help for information on using the GUI. On the VA 7100 and VA 7400, the maximum number of host port behavior table entries is 32. On the VA 7410, the maximum number of table entries is 113. The host port behavior table is created using an ASCII text file containing entries identifying a host (by WWN) and its associated behavior. Table entries use the following format: is the port WWN for the host or the host adapter(s). is the behavior value for the host. Table 3 lists the valid host port behavior values for each supported operating system. Virtual Array Installation Guide 45

Virtual Array Installation Guide

For other supported operating systems use the utilities included with their
respective host adapter. The
Quick Connect Guide
downloaded from the
internal SPOCK web site should include information on how to locate and
use the operating system or host adapter utilities.
Most FC switches provide a method for displaying the WWN of the device
connected to each switch port.
Step 19. Build the Host Port Behavior Table
The host port behavior table is used in heterogeneous environments to identify
hosts that do not use the controller default host port behavior. If all hosts use
the default behavior, skip this step.
Note
On CommandView SDM 1.05 and later, the GUI can also be
used to create the host port behavior table. Refer to the
HP
StorageWorks
CommandView SDM Installation and User Guide
or the on-line help for information on using the GUI.
On the VA 7100 and VA 7400, the maximum number of host
port behavior table entries is 32. On the VA 7410, the maximum
number of table entries is 113.
The host port behavior table is created using an ASCII text file containing
entries identifying a host (by
WWN) and its associated behavior. Table entries
use the following format:
<WWN> <host_port_behavior>
<WWN> is
the port WWN for the host or the host adapter(s).
<host_port_behavior>
is
the behavior value for the host.
Table 3
lists
the valid host port behavior values for each supported operating system.
