Virtual Connect server profiles 210
Column name Description
MAC addresses, the VC-defined MAC address appears. If the profile is using
hardware MAC addresses, FACTORY-DEFAULT appears.
Mapping
Server hardware mapping assignment. See "iSCSI and FCoE port
assignments (on page 173)."
Action
Delete a connection. Connections can be removed starting with the last
connection in the list.
FC HBA Connections
Port
Relative order of the Fibre Channel port on the server receiving the profile
Connected to
Bay number of the VC-FC module to which the port is connected
FC SAN Name
Name of the SAN fabric to which the port is connected, or Unassigned
Status
Status of the Fibre Channel module
Port Speed Type
Speed of the VC-FC module port connected to the server HBA port. Can be set
to "1", "2", "4", "8", "Auto", or "Disabled".
Auto—VCM determines the appropriate port speed based on the available
bandwidth for the port.
Disabled—The connection is disabled and no bandwidth is allocated.
1,2,4, and 8Gb—Predefined custom port speed selection that can be used for
the connection.
For the HP Virtual Connect 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 Virtual Connect.*
WWPN
As of VC 3.70, the actual hardware WWN for mapped connections
appears. For unmapped connections, FACTORY-DEFAULT continues to
appear. If the profile is assigned, the WWN assigned to the port appears. If
the profile is unassigned and the domain is set to show factory default
WWNs, FACTORY-DEFAULT appears. If the profile is using VC-defined
WWNs, the VC-defined WWN appears. If the profile is using hardware
WWNs, FACTORY-DEFAULT appears.

FCoE HBA Connections
Port
Relative order of the FCoE port on the server receiving the profile
Connected to
Bay number of the VC module to which the port is connected
FC SAN/FCoE Network Name
Name of the SAN fabric or FCoE network to which the port is connected, or
Unassigned
Type
Type of connection, SAN or FCoE depending on the fabric or FCoE selection
Status
Status of the VC module
Port Speed Type
Requested speed for the FlexFabric connection.
If an FCoE network is assigned to the connection, the supported port speed
types are "Auto", "Preferred", "Custom" and "Disabled".
If a SAN Fabric is assigned to the connection, the supported port speed types
are "1", "2", "4", "8", "Preferred", "Custom" and "Disabled".
For all port speed types, if configured, the maximum allocated port speed is
determined by the maximum connection speed for that SAN Fabric or FCoE
network.
Auto—VCM determines the appropriate port speed based on the available
bandwidth for the port.
Preferred—Use the preferred speed of the SAN Fabric or FCoE network
selected for this connection. If no preferred speed is configured, VCM
