23 Managing Fiber Channel (FC) Configuration
The Fiber Channel Profile extends the management capabilities of referencing profiles by adding the
capability to represent the configuration of fiber channel host bus adapters (FC HBA). The FC HBAs
are modeled as views and attributes where there is a view for each individual controller and multiple
attributes that allow FC HBA configuration.
