Technical data
If the current topology for an adapter is LOOP, set an individual adapter to
FABRIC by using the item number for that adapter (for example, 0 or 1). Use
9999 to set all adapters as shown in Example 4-2.
Displaying the adapter information again will show the topology that the
adapters will assume after the next console initialization:
P00>>> wwidmgr -show adapter
item adapter WWN Cur. Topo Next Topo
[ 0] pga0.0.0.2.0 1000-0000-c922-4aac LOOP FABRIC
[ 1] pgb0.0.0.4.0 1000-0000-c924-4b7b LOOP FABRIC
[9999] All of the above.
This display shows that the current topology for both Fibre Channel host
bus adapters is LOOP, but will be FABRIC after the next initialization:
P00>>> init
P00>>> wwidmgr -show adapter
item adapter WWN Cur. Topo Next Topo
[ 0] pga0.0.0.2.0 1000-0000-c922-4aac FABRIC FABRIC
[ 1] pgb0.0.0.4.0 1000-0000-c924-4b7b FABRIC FABRIC
[9999] All of the above.
______________________ Notes ______________________
The console remains in wwid manager mode, and you cannot
boot until the system is reinitialized. Use the init command or
a system reset to reinitialize the system after using the wwid
manager.
If you try to boot the system and receive the following error,
initialize the console to get out of WWID manager mode and
reboot:
P00>>> boot
warning -- main memory zone is not free
P00>>> init
.
.
.
P00>>> boot
If you shut down the operating system and try to use the wwidmgr
utility, you may be prevented from doing so. If you receive the
following error, initialize the system and retry the wwidmgr
command:
P00>>> wwidmgr -show adapter
wwidmgr available only prior to booting.
Reinit system and try again.
P00>>> init
.
.
.
P00>>> wwidmgr -show adapter
.
.
