Comments

You can also type comment rows in the spreadsheet by beginning a row with the # character. The

comment row can consists of any characters in any language. A row that includes only a linefeed

code is also recognized as a comment row.

• Example:

# (comment)

# Change CHA settings (comment)

[CHA](function tag)

# CHA,PCB Mode (comment)

# (linefeed)

CHA-1P,Standard (indicating changes)

CHA-1Q,Standard (indicating changes)

New Settings Can Affect Other Settings

As a general rule, the settings are applied to the array one at a time, in the order they appear in the

spreadsheet. This means that the settings of the prior function tags can affect the following function

tags. For example, if you were to delete a host group in the [HostGroup] tag, the path settings related

to the deleted host group would also be automatically deleted. If you then write the new settings for

the automatically deleted path in the [LUN] tag or the [WWN] tag, that would cause an error.

LUN Manager Spreadsheet Settings

The following LUN Manager functions can be defined by using Configuration File Loader:

• Channel Adapter (CHA) settings allow you to change the PCB mode. See “Setting the CHA

Mode” on page 152.

• Port Settings allow you to change the settings for arbitrated loop-physical address (AL-PA), data

transfer speed (host speed), and topology. You can also change the Secure Manager XP setting.

See “Port Settings” on page 153.

• Host Group Settings allow you to create, delete, or change the host group. See “Setting the Host

Group” on page 154.
