scsimgr_fcd - Fibre Channel interface driver fcd plug-in for scsimgr
DESCRIPTION
The Fibre Channel interface driver plug-in for implements management operations specific to fibre channel HBA controllers bound to driver
is the native HP-UX Fibre Channel interface driver that manages fibre channel devices.
The plug-in handles the following operations for driver
o Get, set and save per driver instance attributes.
Commands
The user can explicitly send the following commands to the driver plug-in by specifying the instance#> HBA controller hardware path>
instance#> option:
Displays information on attributes.
Saves value of attributes in a persistent store.
Sets values of attributes.
Refer to scsimgr(1M) for the syntax of these commands.
automatically invokes the plug-in to perform the driver specific part of the operation when the operation applies to per driver instances.
Attributes
The following table lists driver specific attributes. For details on the concept of attributes refer to scsimgr(1M).
Note: The following conventions are used:
o RO is Read Only.
o RW is Read Write.
o string is an array of characters.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Object Attribute Name RO/RW Type Description
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Controller sym_port_name RW string Symbolic Port Name for
fibre channel HBA con-
troller
Default: <host-
name>_fcd<instance#>
---------------------------------------------------------------------
sym_node_name RW string Symbolic Node Name for
fibre channel HBA con-
troller
Default: <hostname>_HP-
UX_<os release version>

EXAMPLES
Display all attributes for HBA controller with DSF /dev/fcd1:
Get HBA controller symbolic port name for DSF /dev/fcd1:
Get HBA controller symbolic node name for hardware path 0/2/1/0:
Set HBA controller symbolic port name for DSF /dev/fcd1 to fcd1_port:
Set HBA controller symbolic node name for class fc and instance 8 to fcd1_node:
Save HBA controller symbolic port name for DSF /dev/fcd1 as fcd1_port:
Save HBA controller symbolic node name for hardware path 0/2/1/0 as fcd1_node:
