Local array ports. You can set alternate paths for the selected port. One of the following icons appears
for each port:
• Selected Paths
External array port for which you can set the alternate path connecting to the local array port selected
in the Port list. By default, all ports that can be set as alternate paths appear. The WWN identifying
the external array port appears. If the primary path and as many alternate paths as you set in
Alternate Path in the Add LU pane cannot be set with the paths selected in Selected Paths, an error
occurs and appears in the Preset list.
• Unselected Paths
Ports excluded from being candidates for the ports setting the primary and alternate paths appear
among the external array ports that can be set as the primary and alternate paths. WWNs identifying
the external array ports appear in the list.
• Set button
If you select the port (external array WWN) you want to set as the candidate for the primary and
alternate paths in Unselected Paths, and click Set, the selected WWN moves to Selected Paths.
• Release button
If you select the port (external array WWN) you want to exclude from the list of candidates for the
primary and alternate paths in Selected Paths, and click Release, the selected WWN moves to
Unselected Paths.
• OK button
Saves settings in the Select Paths pane, and closes the pane.
• Cancel button
Cancels all settings in the Select Paths pane, and closes the pane.
