FC Target Ports Subprofile
The FC Target Ports subprofile models Fibre Channel specific aspects of a target storage system.
This subprofile provides information about FC ports on an HP 3PAR Storage System that are
connected to hosts or FC switches.
For detailed information regarding the FC Target Ports subprofile, refer to SMI-S at http://
www.snia.org.
FC Target Ports Subprofile CIM Classes
Table 81 FC Target Ports Subprofile CIM Classes
DescriptionClass
The storage array on which the target ports reside.TPD_StorageSystem
A SCSI transport endpoint. In this context, this represents
a target port on the HP 3PAR Storage System.
TPD_SCSIProtocolFCEndpoint
A Fibre Channel Port residing on the
TPD_ComputerSystem.
TPD_FCPort
Represents the SCSI view of ports as seen by SCSI initiators.TPD_SCSIController

for the StorageSystem.

FCoE Target Port
CNA card installed on an a storage system contains ports that can either be configured as FCoE
or iSCSI. Here are the extra CIM classes that model the FCoE port:

DescriptionClass
The underlying ethernet port on the CNA cardTPD_EthernetPort
Association between the TPD_EthernetPort and the
TPD_FCPort class of the FCoE port

Association between the TPD_FCPortLESBStatistics and the
TPD_FCPort class of the FCoE port

FCoE port can only be used in a target role and not in an initiator role. CNA port configured as
iSCSI is modeled in exactly the same way as iSCSI target port.
Distinctions between FC and FCoE Port
FCoE port behaves exactly like an FC target port, but here are two key differences:
