Table 5-1. Non-interactive Command Variables

Variable	Definition
hba_port_inst	The system port (formerly HBA number)
Target ID	Target ID
LUN ID	Logical unit number (0–255)
CHAP Number	Challange handshake authentication protocol (CHAP) num-
	ber
CHAP Name	Null-terminated CHAP name, which is sent by the port
	instance when responding to the CHAP challenge
CHAP Secret	CHAP secret, which is used by the port instance when gener-
	ating the CHAP response
Boot Target	The target ID of the target device from which to boot
Boot LUN	The LUN of the boot device

NOTE:

„The commands are case sensitive. For example, -gis not the same as

-G.

„Only one command line option per input file is valid.

„<hba_port_inst> is an instance number from the list of all iSCSI HBA ports in the system. You can see this list with the command -i.

The positional parameters vary, depending on the command option specified. For example, to display an HBA’s configured settings, use the command option -C, followed by the port instance number (positional parameter). In contrast, the command for providing general information, -g,has no positional parameters.

In non-interactive mode, most changes made to the port instance become effective immediately. This sometimes will cause the HBA to reset, as specified in the command description. Be sure the system is prepared for a HBA reset before making changes.
