Q-Logic 9000 manual Add Host Window Wildcarding

3 – FVIC Configuration and Monitoring Features Fibre Channel Configuration

Q

1.In the Discovered Hosts table, click the Click to Add Host button. The following is displayed:

Figure 3-33. Add Host Window: Wildcarding

2.In the Initiator GUID text box, enter all zeros (16-digits) as shown in Figure

3-33..An SRP port GUID of all zeros is considered a wildcard - it will match any port GUID value.

3.In the SRP Extension ID text box, enter the 16-digit SRP Extension ID number. In this example (as shown in Figure 3-33.)an SRP Extension ID of 14 is the hexadecimal equivalent of an Initiator Extension of 20, which is found in the ics_srp.cfg file.

NOTE:By default Initiator extensions are in decimal format in the host ics_srp.cfg files (prefacing the decimal number with 0x will make it hexadecimal), but must be entered as hexadecimal strings in the Add Host window.

4.In the Name text box, enter an applicable host name.

5.Click Submit. The host will now appear in the Configured Initiators table.

NOTE:As shown in Figure 3-34.,any SRP initiator that utilizes wildcarding will appear in the Configured Initiators table as an asterisk (*) in the GUID column.
