Chapter 8 Virtual Host Bus Adapters (vHBAs) 157

▼ Configure a Port for Direct-Attached Storage

The Oracle Fabric Interconnect supports direct-attached storage. To configure a port

for such storage:

1. Set the desired port type.

For example, to configure port 1 on I/O module 3 as an “l” port:

2. Reset the I/O card to make your change take effect.

For example:

You can configure each port on a card differently. Issue the reset command after

making all port configuration changes.

If you are reconfiguring a port, remove all but one vHBA from that port. Then

follow the steps above to configure the port for direct-attached storage.

Note – When you configure a LUN on this direct-attached device, you will see the

WWPN of the port, not of the vHBA.
