Fibre Channel (FC) ports are identified by their physical
port number and by a worldwide port name (WWPN).
The physical port numbers identify Fibre Channel adapters
and cable connections when you run service tasks. Worldwide port names
(WWPNs), which uniquely identify the devices on the SAN, are used
for tasks such as Fibre Channel switch configuration. The WWPNs are
derived from the worldwide node name (WWNN) of the node in which the
ports are installed.
All
system nodes can support an optional 4-port Fibre Channel
host interface
adapter.
Table 1 lists the
WWPN values for each port when 4-port Fibre Channel
host interface adapters are installed in a
control enclosure.
