Example of changing Fibre Channel (FC) to Converged Network Adapter (CNA):
QConvergeConsole
CLI - Version x.y.z (Build xx)
FC Adapter Configuration
1: HBA Model: QLE8362 SN: 040210A+1238107609
Port 1 WWPN: 21-00-00-0E-1E-10-65-20 Online
Port 2 WWPN: 21-00-00-0E-1E-10-65-21 Online
(p or 0: Previous Menu; m or 98: Main Menu; ex or 99: Quit)
Please Enter Selection: 1
Change personality to CNA? (y/n): y
Personality type of HBA instance 0 (QLE8362) has been changed
successfully. Please reboot machine. Make sure to change the SFP
module to a compatible one (CNA) before reboot.
