Complete this task to locate the WWPN for an IBM® iSeries™ host.
Note: This section applies only to i5/OS partitions.
You can find the 16-digit worldwide port name (WWPN) for an iSeries host
system in the field for port worldwide name by displaying the detail on the
2766, 2787, and 5760 IOA Logical Hardware Resource information in the Hardware
Service Manager in SST/DST. You can also find the WWPN by appending the number
1000 to the beginning of the 12-digit IEEE address found on the tailstock
label of the fibre-channel input/output adapter (IOA).
You can locate the WWPN for an iSeries host by performing the following
steps:
- On the iSeries Main Menu panel, type strsst.
- On the Start Service Tools (STRSST) Sign On panel, type your service
tools user ID and password.
- On the System Service Tools (SST) panel, type 1 to
select Start a service tool.
- On the Start a Service Tool panel, type 7 to select Hardware
service manager.
- On the Hardware Service Manager panel, type 1 to
select Packaging hardware resources (systems, frames, cards,...).
- On the Packaging Hardware Resources panel, type 9 to
select the System Expansion unit.
- On the Packaging Hardware Resources panel, type 8 to
select Storage IOA.
- On the Logical Resources Associated with a Packaging Resource
panel, type 5 to select Storage IOA.
- On the Auxiliary Storage Hardware Resource Detail panel, locate
the field name for the worldwide port name. The number in the right column
is the WWPN.
Note: If you have exchanged
a 2766 fibre channel IOA in the iSeries host, you must update the WWPN of
the new 2766, 2787, or 5760 IOA.
