Server Profiles 6. Collect the WWPN for the Direct attach Fibre Channel connections the server profile you created in the preceding step.

7.After you configure the HP 3PAR Storage System, power on the server hardware.

•For example, for each server profile, record the WWPN for the FlatSAN A and FlatSAN B Fibre Channel connections.

•For more information about server profiles, see “Managing servers and server profiles” (page 111), the online help for the Server Profiles screen, or the REST API scripting help for server profiles.

•You use these WWPNs when you configure the HP 3PAR Storage System. For more information about configuring the HP 3PAR Storage System, see the documentation for that storage system.
