Resetting the WWPN Assigned to a vHBA from a Pool in a Service Profile Template
Ifyou changethe WWPN pool assigned to an updating service profile template, Cisco UCS Manager does
notchange the WWPN assigned to a service profile created with that template. If you want Cisco UCS Manager
toassign a WWPN from the newly assigned pool to the service profile, and therefore to the associated server,
youmust resetthe WWPN. You can only reset the WWPN assigned to a service profile and its associated
serverunder the followingcircumstances:
•Theservice profile was created from an updating service profile template and includes a WWPN assigned
froma WWPNpool.
• The WWPN pool name is specified in the service profile. For example, the pool nameis not empty.
• The WWPN value is not 0, and is therefore not derived from the server hardware.
