to the LUN.
The cell’s text and bull’s-eye color represent the path type (preferred or
alternate, and current):
❑ Green bull’s eye. Current path. Can be the preferred or alternate path
❑ Red bull’s eye. Preferred path that is not the current path
❑ Blue bull’s eye. Alternate path that is not the current path

3. If you want to set the path of a device as currently active, do the following:
a. Right-click the path status in the adapter column.
b. From the pop-up menu, select Set Current. The bull’s-eye changes to green
and the word Current displays.

Bind Target Devices Attached to the Adapter
This feature is not supported in Novell NetWare.
Target persistent binding is done by associating a target ID with the world wide node
name and world wide port name of the target (targets can also be bound by port ID;
contact QLogic Technical Support for more information). Persistent binding
information for targets is saved to persistent storage:
■ /kernel/drv/qla2x00.conf (Solaris SPARC)
■ Registry (Windows NT/2000)
■ /etc/modules.conf file (Red Hat Linux)
