Configure the Fibre Channel Gateway (Optional)
To configure ITLs, perform the following steps:
1.Log in to your host.
2.Enter the /etc/init.d/ts_srp stop command at the host CLI to force the host to log out of any storage. You must disable connections now and enable them later in this process.
3.Enter the /usr/local/topspin/bin/vstat
NOTE: Record the GUID value. You will enter it repeatedly.
4.Enter the no shutdown command on your Server Switch CLI to bring up any Fibre Channel gateway cards that connect your device to FC storage. The gateway automatically discovers all storage.
Example
Topspin-90# configure terminal
5.(Optional) Enter the show fc srp target command to view the storage that your gateway(s) discovered.
Example
Topspin-90# show fc srp target

6.Enter the fc srp initiator command with

•the GUID extension (always 00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00)
•the
to configure your host.
NOTE: For an initiator to successfully connect to storage, each physical FC gateway port requires a virtual port with a unique WWPN that points to the initiator. Also, the initiator requires a unique WWNN. You can configure these values manually, but we strongly recommend that you take
