A host or storage device model will have an
FCNode
(possibly an HBA) that aggregates one or more
FCPorts
. A device may contain multiple
FCNodes
. All
FCNodes
are hosted by the Fabric object
because the switch is usually unable to determine valid information about the actual
ComputerSystem
hosting the nodes. Furthermore, while the switch is able to determine an
FCNode
for every port reported
by the name server, it will not be able to definitively identify every port attached to an
FCNode
.
Supported properties and methods

ElementName
Property contains the node symbolic name as supplied by the attached device.

QLGC_FCPort
QLGC_FCPort : CIM_FCPort
There are three distinct groups of
FCPort
objects:
Local switch ports
The ports that are attached to the switch that hosts the CIM Agent. Ports that are not licensed or not
installed are not instantiated.
Remote switch ports
The ports on other switches in the fabric. The CIM Agent is only able to report information about these
ports that is exposed by the Fabric Configuration Service on the remote switch. Switch ports are
associated to an aggregating
FCSwitch
object.
NS ports
The device ports that registered themselves with the name server when they logged into the fabric. The
device may be linked with any switch in the fabric. NS ports are associated with an aggregating
FCNode
object.
