Deleting WWN exclusion ranges

1.

From the VCEM home page, under the Administration heading, click the World Wide Names
hyperlink.

2.

From the Select ranges to configure list, select WWN.

3.

Select a WWN address range. The exclusion range must be contained within the address
range to which the exclusion range belongs.

IMPORTANT:

After upgrading to VCEM 1.4x or later, HP recommends that you delete any

exclusion ranges for HP predefined MAC and WWN addresses.

4.

Click Delete. You are prompted to confirm your choice.

IMPORTANT:

If the exclusion range includes external addresses, these external addresses

remain external, even if the exclusion range is removed.

To avoid conflicts, ensure all addresses within this range are not being used by any other
Fibre Channel device on your network.

your data center. Excluded address ranges are not assigned for use by VCEM.

To allocate WWN addresses:
1.

From the VCEM home page, under the Administration heading, click the World Wide Names
hyperlink.
