Description

Logical ID field

Logical ID of the LUN.

 

 

Device Category field

Provides the random radio button and sequential radio button to

 

identify disk devices and tape devices respectively.

 

 

Inquiry Data field

SCSI inquiry data retrieved about the LU.

Path Affinity—this feature locks a storage connection to a path

 

for the duration of data transfer to increase speed and efficiency.

 

Gateway Port Load Balancing—this feature distributes traffic

 

evenly across both ports in an FC gateway card (when both of the

 

ports can access the same storage).

 

Gateway Port Failover—this feature leaves one port on an FC

 

gateway dormant so it can adopt the traffic of the other port (when

 

both of the ports can access the same storage) if that port goes

 

down.
