Port settings for HP MA and EMA systems

Port settings are configurable at the port level.

Restriction: Only one port per HSG80 pair can be used with the system.
The port settings are set by using the following commands:
  • SET THIS PORT_1_TOPOLOGY=FABRIC
  • SET THIS PORT_2_TOPOLOGY=FABRIC
  • SET OTHER PORT_1_TOPOLOGY=FABRIC
  • SET OTHER PORT_2_TOPOLOGY=FABRIC
These values can be checked by using the following commands:

Note: The HP MA and EMA systems support LUN masking that is configured with the SET unit number ENABLE_ACCESS_PATH command. When used with the system, the access path must be set to all (SET unit number ENABLE_ACCESS_PATH=ALL). All LUN masking must also be handled exclusively by the system. You can use the SHOW CONNECTIONS FULL command to check access rights.
