adaptername the name of the adapter to open, as returned by HBA_GetAdapterName(3HBAAPI)
handle
HBA_OpenAdapterByWWN() a pointer to an HBA_HANDLE
HBA_CloseAdapter() the open handle of the adapter to close, as returned by HBA_OpenAdapter(3HBAAPI)
wwn the WWN to match the Node WWN or Port WWN of the HBA to open
DESCRIPTION
The HBA_OpenAdapter() function opens the adapter specified by adaptername and returns a handle used for subsequent operations on the HBA.
The HBA_OpenAdapterByWWN() function opens a handle to the HBA whose Node or Port WWN matches the wwn argument.
The HBA_CloseAdapter() function closes the open handle.
RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, HBA_OpenAdapter() returns a valid HBA_HANDLE with a numeric value greater than 0. Otherwise, 0 is returned.
The HBA_OpenAdapterByWWN() function returns the following values:
HBA_STATUS_OK
The handle argument contains a valid HBA handle.
HBA_STATUS_ERROR_ILLEGAL_WWN
The wwn argument is not a valid port WWN on the specified HBA.
