218 Implementing an Open IBM SAN
We have now physically attached all server ports and the two ESS ports. That is
why we now have Device information (WWNN) displayed in the port list.
Figure 3-36 shows a port list with all of our desired name changes active and
with the WWNN information displayed for the attached ports.

Once the new names are effective they will be used throughout the whole
IN-VSN fabric management, including zoning, FIO-blade monitoring and name
services.
3.3.4 Setting the director clock
All directors will be delivered with preset time and date settings. However, in
most cases, these clock settings do not match with the local ones.
These clock settings do not affect the fabric functionality at all. However it is
important to set them because this makes reading and understanding the
time-stamped logs much easier.
