Final Array Configuration
Step 18. Gather Host WWNs
The host WWN is used for defining the port behavior for a host, and for
managing LUN security. Either the node or port WWN can be used. Before
building either the host port behavior table or the LUN security table, you must
gather the WWNs associated with each host that will be accessing the array.
This step is only required in heterogeneous host environments, or if Secure
Manager will be used to implement LUN security.
There are two options for identifying the host WWN.
Using the armtopology command
The armtopology command available in the CLUI displays information,
including the WWN, for any host running CommandView SDM
. If
CommandView SDM is loaded on all hosts, you can identify all host WWNs
using armtopology.
The armtopology command has the following structure:
armtopology <Host_1> <Host_2> <Host_3> ... <Host_n>
where <Host_n> is the DNS name or the IP address of each host
Example output:
Host Host Node WWN Host Port WWN Product SerialNumber C RG LUN Device path

Using Host and Adapter Utilities
For hosts not running CommandView SDM , another method must be used to
determine the host WWN.
Each host should have specific utilities - operating
system or host adapter - which can be used to identify the host WWNs.
■ For HP-UX, run the fcutil command. For example, for a Fibre Channel
array named “fcms1”, enter:
/opt/fcms/bin/fcmsutil/dev/fcms1
