Creating Port Labels

This section describes how to create port labels. It includes the following sections:

‹

“Creating Port Labels” on page 113

‹

“Modifying Ports in a Port Label” on page 115

Creating Port
Labels

You create port labels in the Port Labels page. Port labels are names given to sets of
port numbers. You use port labels to simplify configuration and reporting tasks you
perform with the Management Console. For example, you can create port labels to
define a set of ports for which the same in-path, load-balancing, or QoS rules apply.

The HP EFS WAN Accelerator automatically discovers all the ports in the system that
have traffic. The discovered port along with a label (if one exists) is added to the
Traffic Summary report. If a label does not exist then an unknown label is added to
the discovered port.

If you want to change the unknown label to a name representing the port, you must
add the port with new label. All statistics for this new port label are preserved from
the time the port was discovered.

The following tables summarizes the port labels that are provided by default.

Control

Description

Actions

Select one of the following actions from the drop-down list:

Start Verify. Generates a list of the differences between the share on the HP EFS

WAN Accelerator and the origin file server. The first time you synchronize a share the

data comes from the origin file server. A list of differences is available in the PFS

Shares Status report.

Start Full Sync. Allows you to immediately synchronize the share and its

corresponding remote share on the origin file server. You may select Start Full Sync

at any time to manually synchronize a share.

Cancel Action. Cancels the synchronization process.
Delete Share. Deletes the selected share.
