Select a target port for each source port

These ports are selected by the interface identifier and location. You must select a target port for each selected source port.

Port ID (Selected source I/O port location)

The combined value of the port identifier that determines the target LSS for the path and the location of the port. The interface identifier is a four-digit character (0 - 9 or uppercase A - F). Value FFFF is reserved. The value of the location uses this format: R(1-2)-I(1-8)-C(1-6)-P(1-4), where:

• R is the rack location
• E is the I/O enclosure
• C is the card
• P is the port of the adapter
  Note: R1-E3-C2-P1 is an example of this format.
