Scan Fibre Channel devices

Use this option to scan and list all the connected devices. Information about each device is listed, for example, vendor name, product name, and revision. This information is useful when you are configuring the Expansion Card and attached devices.

Fibre Channel disk utility

The Fibre Channel disk utility is not supported in the Fibre Channel Options

Use this option to scan the Fibre Channel loop bus and list all the connected devices by loop ID. You can select a disk device and perform a low-level format or verify the disk media or data.

Attention: Performing a low-level format removes all data on the disk.

Loopback data test

This option is not available with your configuration. Use the Online Port Loopback Test in the SAN Utility to test communication between the Expansion Card and the Fibre Channel Switch Module. See “Port testing” on page 117

ExitFast!UTIL

After you complete the configuration, use this option to exit the menu and restart the blade server.
