Technical data

• FCP Initiator — The remote N_Port acts as a SCSI initiator device
(it sends SCSI commands).
• FCP Suspended — The driver has invoked a temporary suspension
on SCSI traffic to the N_Port while it resolves a change in
connectivity.
• F_PORT — The fabric connection (F_Port) allows the adapter to
send Fibre Channel traffic into the fabric.
• Directory Server — The N_Port is the FC entity queried to
determine who is present on the Fibre Channel fabric.
3 A target ID of -1 (or -2) that shows up for remote Fibre Channel devices
that do not communicate using Fibre Channel protocol, the directory
server, and F_Port.

6.11.2 Using the emxmgr Utility in an Arbitrated Loop Topology
The following example shows the results of the emxmgr -t command in
an arbitrated loop topology.
# emxmgr -t emx0
