How to configure a FC HBA in "initiator mode"?
Hi all,
I have a p520 machine running 5.2ML9 with a 2Gb FC HBA from IBM, i.e.
# lscfg -vl fcs0
fcs0 U787A.001.DNZ06YM-P1-C3-T1 FC Adapter
Part Number.................80P4543
EC Level....................A
Serial Number...............1F4270A0B6
Manufacturer................001F
Our network administrator is trying to get the host to see some shared storage on our SAN, but reports that the switch sees the host as "UNKNOWN", and states that the HBA needs to be in "initiator mode". However, going into SMIT, I can't see obvious configuration options to use.
The device is seen as "AVAILABLE" as per lsdev -C. Has anyone any idea how this mode should be configured?
Many thanks,
Bookie

HBA_RefreshInformation(3HBAAPI) Common Fibre Channel HBA Information Library Functions HBA_RefreshInformation(3HBAAPI)
NAME
HBA_RefreshInformation, HBA_RefreshAdapterConfiguration - refresh information for a specific HBA
SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag... ] file... -lHBAAPI [ library... ]
#include <hbaapi.h>
void HBA_RefreshInformation(HBA_HANDLE handle);
void HBA_RefreshAdapterConfiguration(void);
PARAMETERS
handle an open handle returned from HBA_OpenAdapter(3HBAAPI)
DESCRIPTION
The HBA_RefreshInformation() function requests that the underlying VSL reload all information about the given HBA. This function should be
called whenever any function returns HBA_STATUS_ERROR_STALE_DATA, or if an index that was previously valid returns HBA_STATUS_ERROR_ILLE-
GAL_INDEX. Because the underlying VSL can reset all indexes relating to the HBA, all old index values must be discarded by the caller.
The HBA_RefreshAdapterConfiguration() function updates information about the HBAs present on the system. This function does not change any
of the relationships between the HBA API and adapters that have not been reconfigured. HBA handles continue to refer to the same HBA even
if it is no longer installed. The HBA name or index assigned by the library remains assigned to the same HBA even if it has been removed
and reinstalled, as long as the bus position, WWN, and OS device have not changed. Adapter that have been removed and not replaced cannot
have their HBA handles, HBA names, and HBA indexes reassigned. Calls to these adapters will generate HBA_STATUS_ERROR_UNAVAILABLE.
