-pc (Adapter Personality Change)
Use the -pc command to change an adapter’s personality between Fibre
Channel only (FC only) and Converged Network Adapter (CNA).
To display the adapter’s current personality, issue the -pc command as follows:
qaucli -pr fc -pc <hba instance>|<hba wwpn>|all --info
To change the adapter’s personality, issue the -pc command as follows:
qaucli -pr fc -pc <hba instance>|<hba wwpn>|all --type <mode>
Where:
-pl (Persistent Names [udev] – Linux only)
To display udev persistent device names of a specific LUN or all LUNs, issue the
following command
:
qaucli -pr fc -pl <hba instance>|<hba wwpn> --info [<target id>
<lun id>]
Where:
NOTE
The adapter personality feature is supported only on Marvell 2600 and 8300
Series adapters. This feature lets you set the adapter’s personality to Fibre
Channel only or Converged Network Adapter.
<hba instance> = Adapter number (use the -g command to find)
<hba wwpn> = World wide port name of an adapter port
all = All adapter ports
<mode> = Adapter personality—specify one of the following:
fc
or fco or 0: Fibre Channel
cna or 1: Converged Network Adapter
<hba instance> = Adapter number (use the -g command to find)
<hba wwpn> = World wide port name of the adapter
<target id> = Name of the firmware preload table DAT file.
<lun id> = ID of the LUN
