Item Description
[AddressType=<Factory-Default|User-Defined|Pool-Specifie
d>] [PortWWN=<WWN address>] [NodeWWN=<WWN address>]
Parameter
ProfileName (required)
The name of an existing profile to which the new connection is added
Properties
Fabric (optional)
The name of an existing fabric to associate with the connection. If the fabric
name is not specified, the connection is marked as “Unassigned” and
associated with a specific bay.
Speed (optional)
The port speed of the connection port. Values include "Auto", "1Gb", "2Gb",
"4Gb", "8Gb", and "Disabled". If not specified, the default port speed is set to
"Auto".
Speed restrictions:
For the HP VC 4Gb FC Module, supported speed values include
"Auto","1Gb","2Gb", "4Gb", and "Disabled". If the value is set to 8Gb, the
speed is auto-negotiated by VC.
AddressType (optional)
The source of WWN address assignments used during the creation of the new
connection. If not specified, it defaults to the domain default. If "User-Defined"
or "Pool-Specified" is specified, then both a Port WWN and Node WWN must
also be specified. Values include "Factory-Default", "User-Defined", or
"Pool-Specified".
To use the "Pool-Specified" option, the domain WWN pool must be defined as
VC-defined or user-defined and the listed addresses must be available in the
current pool.
PortWWN (required if
AddressType is
User-Defined or
Pool-Specified)
The user-defined Port WWN address to use for the connection. This property is
required if the AddressType specified is "User-Defined" or "Pool-Specified". The
PortWWN must be an unused WWN address.
NodeWWN (required if
AddressType is
User-Defined or
Pool-Specified)
The user-defined Node WWN address to use for the connection. This property
is required if the AddressType specified is "User-Defined" or "Pool-Specified".
The NodeWWN must be an unused WWN address.
