QLogic SANsurfer Pro Utility overview
The SANsurfer Pro Utility program is used to manage the IBM FC 4Gbps and 2Gbps
You can use the SANsurfer Pro Utility program to manage and control one or more adapters that are installed on local or remote systems. The SANsurfer Pro Utility program is used, along with problem determination procedures (PDPs), on new or existing installations to help diagnose Fibre Channel (FC) subsystem problems in adapters, controllers, and devices that are attached to the Fibre Channel fabric or loop.
You can also perform the following operations:
Disable (unconfigure) a device on a host bus adapter
When a device is set as unconfigured, it is not recognized by the adapter and is not accessible to the adapter on that server.
Enable a device
This operation adds a device and makes it accessible to the adapter on that system.
Note: The diagnostic functions of the SANsurfer Pro Utility program are available for all supported operating systems.
