UseSameNN
If you have multiple QLA23xx HBAs on the same system, the driver assigns the
world wide node name obtained from the first HBA to the rest of the HBAs.
If you want to have the world wide node name for each HBA to be based on its own
NVRAM content, set the UseSameNN parameter to 0.
Follow these steps to change the UseSameNN parameter:
1. Click Start, select Run, and open the REGEDT32 program.
2. Select HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE and follow the tree structure to the
QL2300.SYS driver:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE

3. Double-click DriverParameters:REG_SZ:UseSameNN=1.
4. If the string UseSameNN= does not display, add the following text to the end
of the string:
;UseSameNN=0
5. If the string UseSameNN=1 displays, change the value from 1 to 0.
6. Click OK.
7. Exit the REGEDT32 program, then restart the system.
