To verify the state of the virtual port, issue the following command, where X is the physical port SCSI host ID:
#cat /sys/class/scsi_host/hostX/vport_state
Deleting Virtual Ports
CAUTION!
Deleting or disabling a virtual port is disruptive, and should not be performed on a production system or while I/O operations are in progress on LUNs that are being accessed through the virtual port.
To delete a virtual port using sysfs:
1.Obtain the virtual port WWPN and WWNN by issuing the following commands, where X is the port SCSI host ID:
#cat /sys/class/scsi_host/hostX/port_name
#cat /sys/class/scsi_host/hostX/node_name
2.Delete the virtual port by issuing the following command, where wwpn and wwnn are the port WWPN and WWNN, and X is the port SCSI host ID:
#echo wwpn:wwnn > /sys/class/scsi_host/hostX/vport_delete
