Name
Main > Manage > FibreChannel > Configure — Use this command to configure the QLogic Fibre Channel HBA ports.
SYNOPSIS
Configure FTMStarget
Configure Initiator
Configure MSDPtarget
DESCRIPTION
You can use the configure command to do the following:
Configure the number of Fibre Channel HBA ports for use by SAN Client (if the SAN Client feature is enabled). You can configure the appliance Fibre Transport Media Server (FTMS) to use the 2 target port configuration or the 4 target port configuration.
Configure the FC HBA ports on this appliance as target ports for Fibre Transport Deduplication. Fibre Transport Deduplication is a feature that enables you to use an appliance as a target host for optimized duplication and Auto Image Replication.
Note:
You must restart the appliances in the FC zone where a port mode change has occurred. A port mode change occurs when you change and save the port mode configuration, or enable/disable the feature. Veritas recommends that you complete all the port mode changes before you restart the appliances.
