To use selectable boot (the OS boots from the first target the BIOS finds) set the
<target wwpn>, <target wwnn>, and <lun id> inputs to all zeros. For
example issue the following command:
qaucli -pr fc -e <hba instance>|<hba wwpn> (enable | 0 0 0)

command:
qaucli -pr fc -e <hba instance>|<hba wwpn> disable
