Introduction

The number of host port WWPN pages reflects the number of host port identifiers that are generated from the Host Systems page.

Real-time
WWPNs for host attachment [Identifier] (Real-time only): Port selections or WWPNs for each host port that is included in the identifier. Each of the defined ports (the number in the parenthesis) has a box. For example, if the Identifier is Fred|Rs6K|FcAl(4), there are 4 text entries. If there are more ports to define for this Identifier than fit on this page, a subsequent page for this Identifier enables you to continue with the WWPN definition for this Identifier. The label in the subsequent page is “WWPNs for host attachment [Identifier] continued”.
Simulated
WWPNs for host attachment [Identifier] (Simulated): You can optionally enter the 16 digit WWPNs for each host port that is included in the identifier. You must select from the box or enter the 16 digit WWPNs for each host port that is included in the identifier. Each of the defined ports (the number in the parenthesis) has a text field.. For example, if the Identifier is Fred|Rs6K|FcAl(4), there are 4 WTextEntries. If there are more ports to define for this Identifier than fit on this page, a subsequent page for this Identifier enables you to continue with the WWPN definition for this Identifier. The label in the subsequent page is “WWPNs for host attachment [Identifier] continued”.
