5. Click the type of binding you want to use, and type the WWPN, WWNN, or D_ID
you want to bind to the target.
6. Select the Bus ID and Target ID that you want to bind, and click OK.
Note: A target does not appear on the target list if automapping is disabled and
the target is not already persistently bound.
Changing FC/FCoE World Wide Port and Node Names
The Maintenance tab enables you to change the World Wide Port Name (WWPN) and
the World Wide Node Name (WWNN) of a selected adapter port. For example, you
might want to use an installed adapter as a standby in case another installed adapter
fails. By changing the standby adapter's WWPN or WWNN it can assume the identity
and configuration (for example, driver parameters, persistent binding settings, and so
on) of the failed adapter.
There are three options for referencing WWNs:
Factory Default WWN – As shipped from the factory.
Non-Volatile WWN – Values that are saved in non-volatile adapter’s flash
memory that survives a reboot and/or power outage.
Volatile WWN – A temporary value that is saved in volatile memory on the
flash. If volatile WWNs are set, they are used instead of the non-Volatile
WWNs.
Note: Volatile WWN changes require a warm system reboot in order to take
effect. Volatile WWN changes are lost on systems that power cycle the
adapters during the reboot.
Caution: Changing volatile WWNs takes the selected adapter offline. Ensure
that this adapter is not controlling a boot device and all I/O activity
on this adapter is stopped before proceeding. Emulex assumes no
responsibility for the consequences of making volatile WWN
changes on a boot adapter.
Note: The following notes apply when changing FC/FCoE WWPNs or WWNNs:
