Compaq AA-RHGWC-TE manual 64Using Fibre Channel Storage

portname 2004-0060-6900-5A1B nodename 1000-0060-6900-5A1B Present, Logged in, F_PORT,

1Status of the emx1 link. The connection is a point-to-point fabric (switch) connection, and the link is up. The adapter is on SCSI bus 3 at SCSI ID 7. Both the port name and node name of the adapter (the worldwide name) are provided. The Fibre Channel DID number is the physical Fibre Channel address being used by the N_Port.

2A list of all other Fibre Channel devices on this SCSI bus, with their SCSI ID, port name, node name, physical Fibre Channel address and other items such as:

3

•Present — The adapter indicates that this N_Port is present on the fabric.

•Logged in — The adapter and remote N_Port have exchanged initialization parameters and have an open channel for communications (nonprotocol-specific communications).

•FCP Target — This N_Port acts as a SCSI target device (it receives SCSI commands).

•FCP Logged in — The adapter and remote N_Port have exchanged FCP-specific initialization parameters and have an open channel for communications (Fibre Channel protocol-specific communications).

•Logged Out — The adapter and remote N_Port do not have an open channel for communication.

•FCP Initiator — The remote N_Port acts as a SCSI initiator device (it sends SCSI commands).

•FCP Suspended — The driver has invoked a temporary suspension on SCSI traffic to the N_Port while it resolves a change in connectivity.

•F_PORT — The fabric connection (F_Port) allowing the adapter to send Fibre Channel traffic into the fabric.

•Directory Server — The N_Port is the FC entity queried to determine who is present on the Fibre Channel fabric.

A target ID of -1 (or -2) shows up for remote Fibre Channel devices that do not communicate using Fibre Channel protocol, the directory server, and F_Port.
