You can add ports to a host from the Adding Ports panel.
This task assumes that you have already launched the SAN Volume Controller Console.
Complete the following steps to add ports to a host:
- Click in the portfolio. The Viewing
Hosts panel is displayed.
- Select the host that you want to add ports to and select Add
Ports from the task list. Click Go.
The Adding Ports panel is displayed.
- Select either Fibre Channel
or iSCSI for the connection type.
If you select Fibre
Channel as the connection type, complete the following steps:
- Assign a worldwide port name (WWPN). A WWPN consists of 16 hexadecimal
digits (for example, 210100e08b251dd4). You can either select a WWPN
from the list of candidates, or you can enter a WWPN that is not in
the list. You can assign one or more WWPNs to a single logical host
object. Click Add to include the WWPN in the list of Selected Ports.
If you select iSCSI as the connection type, complete the
following steps:
- In the iSCSI Names field, enter the IQN name or EUI name for the
iSCSI-attached host.
- Click OK.
