Example: Set the Link Down Time-Out
Note that modified settings do not become effective until you reset the I/O card. To
adopt new settings, the card must be brought down, rebooted, and re initialized
using the set iocard command:
-topology={f-port|l-port|n-port} Specifies the type of storage connection to be
used. The following parameters are supported:
• f-port specifies a point-to-point connection
to the storage device through a Fibre Channel
switch. This type of connection supports
NPIV. This is the default configuration for a
Fibre Channel I/O module.
• l-port specifies a loop connection to the storage
device without using a Fibre Channel switch. This
type of connection does not support NPIV. A port
configured this way can support only a single
vHBA.
• n-port specifies a point-to-point connection
to the storage device without using a Fibre
Channel switch. This type of connection
supports NPIV.
*|<slot>/<port> The physical slot and port coordinate to be
configured. An asterisk (*) specifies all available
FC cards.

Shutting down IO cards will adversely affect any virtual IO
resource connected to them and thus cut IO to the physical servers.
Are you sure you want to shutdown the IO card in slot 4 (y/n)?y
