FC_REMOTE_PORT_ADD(9) SCSI mid layer FC_REMOTE_PORT_ADD(9)NAME
fc_remote_port_add - notify fc transport of the existence of a remote FC port.
SYNOPSIS
struct fc_rport * fc_remote_port_add(struct Scsi_Host * shost, int channel, struct fc_rport_identifiers * ids);
ARGUMENTS
shost
scsi host the remote port is connected to.
channel
Channel on shost port connected to.
ids
The world wide names, fc address, and FC4 port roles for the remote port.
DESCRIPTION
The LLDD calls this routine to notify the transport of the existence of a remote port. The LLDD provides the unique identifiers (wwpn,wwn)
of the port, it's FC address (port_id), and the FC4 roles that are active for the port.
For ports that are FCP targets (aka scsi targets), the FC transport maintains consistent target id bindings on behalf of the LLDD. A
consistent target id binding is an assignment of a target id to a remote port identifier, which persists while the scsi host is attached.
The remote port can disappear, then later reappear, and it's target id assignment remains the same. This allows for shifts in FC addressing
(if binding by wwpn or wwnn) with no apparent changes to the scsi subsystem which is based on scsi host number and target id values.
Bindings are only valid during the attachment of the scsi host. If the host detaches, then later re-attaches, target id bindings may
change.
This routine is responsible for returning a remote port structure. The routine will search the list of remote ports it maintains internally
on behalf of consistent target id mappings. If found, the remote port structure will be reused. Otherwise, a new remote port structure will
be allocated.
Whenever a remote port is allocated, a new fc_remote_port class device is created.
Should not be called from interrupt context.
NOTES
This routine assumes no locks are held on entry.

kf -- securely forward tickets
SYNOPSIS
kf [-p port | --port=port] [-l login | --login=login] [-c ccache | --ccache=ccache] [-F | --forwardable] [-G | --no-forwardable]
[-h | --help] [--version] host ...
DESCRIPTION
The kf program forwards tickets to a remote host through an authenticated and encrypted stream. Options supported are:
-p port, --port=port
port to connect to
-l login, --login=login
remote login name
-c ccache, --ccache=ccache
remote cred cache
-F, --forwardable
forward forwardable credentials
-G, --no-forwardable
do not forward forwardable credentials
-h, --help
--version
kf is useful when you do not want to enter your password on a remote host but want to have your tickets one for example AFS.
In order for kf to work you will need to acquire your initial ticket with forwardable flag, i.e. kinit --forwardable.
telnet is able to forward tickets by itself.

Does anyone know how to find the wwpn?
I have 2 dual-port hba card, having hard time finding wwpn through command lines.
prtpicl isnt available - what are other commands to try? (1 Reply)
i read the reply at this link
https://www.unix.com/unix-dummies-que...d-backups.html
and i really surprised and i want to know if it must the mirrored HDD be on the secondary SCSI port and the operated HDD on Primary SCSI port?
thanks (3 Replies)
I am trying to find out the wwpn on a linux server. I tried using the the commands `datapath query wwpn` and `pcmpath query essmap`. Both of them didnt give me any output. Please check below.
# pcmpath query essmap
-bash: pcmpath: command not found
# datapath query wwpn

Hi there
I am in the process of writing a script to check whether a port on a remote system is up or not.

Hello all,
I have an A1000 connected to a Sun-Fire-V440(solaris10) through server's HVD scsi card. The card has 2 scsi ports on it and 1 of the ports was initially connected to A1000. And, this A1000 is terminated using a terminator. (c4t5d0)
Now, I want to connect another A1000 storage to... (1 Reply)
I can't come to think of any other way than just grep, but hopefully someone can give me a hint...
In a script I am working on, I need to get which scsi channel a disk is connected to.
I know it's devicename, which is sdc.
With this knowledge, I run hdparm -I /dev/sdc and grep for "Model... (11 Replies)
my apps use port 40001; however, for example, firstly, I ftp to other server, it made a high port locally, remote is port 21, unfortunately, it hit my port 40001 and my apps is unable to startup. This chance is very very little, but I hit it. Can resevse my port 40001? otherwise command don't use it (5 Replies)
Hi,
There are two servers which needs to be connected via the port number 1521 from a remote server.
This is the port config in the first server : L28tstream1 :
# netstat -tulpn | grep 1521
tcp 0 0 10.67.26.183:1521 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN ... (2 Replies)
