ensuring that the number you enter is unique within the SAN. An OS Unit ID greater than 9999
is not capable of being served by MSCP.

CAUTION:

It is possible to enter a duplicate Console LUN ID or OS unit ID number. You must

ensure that you enter a Console LUN ID and OS Unit ID that is not already in use. A duplicate
Console LUN ID or OS Unit ID can allow the OpenVMS host to corrupt data due to confusion about
LUN identity. It can also prevent the host from recognizing the controllers.

Adding OpenVMS hosts

To obtain WWNs on AlphaServers, do one of the following:

Enter the show device fg/full OVMS command.

Use the WWIDMGR -SHOW PORT command at the SRM console.

To obtain WWNs on Integrity servers, do one of the following:

Enter the show device fg/full OVMS command.

Use the following procedure from the server console:
1.

From the EFI boot Manager, select EFI Shell.

2.

In the EFI Shell, enter “Shell> drivers”.

A list of EFI drivers loaded in the system is displayed.

3.

In the listing, find the line for the FCA for which you want to get the WWN information.

For a Qlogic HBA, look for HP 4 Gb Fibre Channel Driver or HP 2 Gb Fibre
Channel Driver

as the driver name. For example:

T D
D Y C I
R P F A
V VERSION E G G #D #C DRIVER NAME IMAGE NAME
== ======== = = = == == =================================== ===================
22 00000105 B X X 1 1 HP 4 Gb Fibre Channel Driver PciROM:0F:01:01:002

4.

Note the driver handle in the first column (22 in the example).

5.

Using the driver handle, enter the drvdfg driver_handle command to find the Device
Handle (Ctrl). For example:

Shell> drvcfg 22
Configurable Components
Drv[22] Ctrl[25] Lang[eng]

6.

Using the driver and device handle, enter the drvdfg —s driver_handle
device_handle

command to invoke the EFI Driver configuration utility. For example:

Shell> drvcfg -s 22 25

7.

From the Fibre Channel Driver Configuration Utility list, select item 8
(Info) to find the WWN for that particular port.

Output similar to the following appears:

Adapter Path: Acpi(PNP0002,0300)/Pci(01|01)
Adapter WWPN: 50060B00003B478A
Adapter WWNN: 50060B00003B478B
Adapter S/N: 3B478A
