Code Example | Sun Microsystems 816-0830-12 instruction

In the previous example, host ports c0 and c2 are connected to the two ports of a Sun StorEdge T3 enterprise array, which has two port WWNs associated with it: attachment point IDs 50020f2300006077 and 50020f2300006107.

▼To Configure a Fabric-Connected Device as a Sun StorEdge Traffic Manager Device

This example uses Fabric-connected host ports c0 and c2 to configure Fabric devices as Sun StorEdge Traffic Manager devices on a host that has the Sun StorEdge Traffic Manager software enabled.

Note that whether a Solaris host has the Sun StorEdge Traffic Manager software enabled or not, the configure operation for Fabric devices is identical, but the result of the operation is different. When the Sun StorEdge Traffic Manager software is enabled, the Solaris host creates device node and path information that includes Sun StorEdge Traffic Manager information.

1.Become superuser.

2.Identify the port WWN of the device to be configured as a Sun StorEdge Traffic Manager device.

Only the devices on a Fabric-connected host port can be configured through the cfgadm configure command.

In CODE EXAMPLE 8-2, the c0::50020f2300006077 and c2::50020f2300006107 attachment point IDs (Ap_IDs) represent the same device with different port WWNs, such as a Sun StorEdge T3 enterprise array. The c0 and c2 host ports are ports that are enabled for use by the Sun StorEdge Traffic Manager software.
