NAME
HBA_GetBindingCapability, HBA_GetBindingSupport, HBA_SetBindingSupport - return and sets binding capabilities on an HBA port
SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag... ] file... -lHBAAPI [ library... ]
#include <hbaapi.h>
HBA_HANDLE HBA_GetBindingCapability(HBA_HANDLE handle, HBA_WWN hbaPortWWN, HBA_BIND_CAPABILITY *pFlags);
HBA_STATUS HBA_GetBindingSupport(HBA_HANDLE handle, HBA_WWN hbaPortWWN, HBA_BIND_CAPABILITY *pFlags);
void HBA_SetBindingSupport(HBA_HANDLE handle, HBA_WWN hbaPortWWN, HBA_BIND_CAPABILITY Flags);
PARAMETERS
handle an open handle returned from HBA_OpenAdapter(3HBAAPI)
hbaPortWWN the Port WWN of the local HBA through which the binding capabilities implemented by the HBA is returned
pFlags a pointer to an HBA_BIND_CAPABILITY structure that returns the persistent binding capabilites implemented by the HBA
Flags an HBA_BIND_CAPABILITY structure containing the persistent binding capabilites to enable for the HBA
DESCRIPTION
The HBA_GetBindingCapability() function returns the binding capabilities implemented by the HBA.
The HBA_GetBindingSupport() function returns the currently enabled binding capabilities for the HBA.
The HBA_SetBindingSupport() function sets the currently enabled binding capabilites for the HBA to a subset of the binding capabilities
implemented by the HBA.
RETURN VALUES
The HBA_GetBindingCapability() and HBA_GetBindingSupport() functions return the following values:
HBA_STATUS_OK
Persistent binding capabilites have been returned.
HBA_STATUS_ERROR_ILLEGAL_WWN
Port WWN hbaPortWWN is not a WWN contained by the HBA referenced by handle.
HBA_STATUS_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED
The HBA handle specified by handle does not support persistent binding.
HBA_STATUS_ERROR
An error occurred. The value of pFlags remains unchanged and points to the persistent binding capabilites.
The HBA_SetBindingSupport() function returns:
HBA_STATUS_OK
Persistent binding capabilites have been enabled.
HBA_STATUS_ERROR_ILLEGAL_WWN
Port WWN hbaPortWWN is not a WWN contained by the HBA referenced by handle.
HBA_STATUS_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED
The HBA handle specified by handle does not support persistent binding.
HBA_STATUS_ERROR_INCAPABLE
The flags argument contains a capability not implemented by the HBA.
