Prerequisites

HBA Identification

Each HBA ships with several numbers clearly marked on the board. Emulex

recommends recording these numbers before installation.

Serial number – assigned by Emulex and used when communicating with

Emulex.

IEEE address – a unique 64-bit identifier used for system configuration

World Wide Name (WWN) – derived from the IEEE address, the FC industry

uses the WWN for FC connectivity.

Note: If the adapter has two ports, it has two IEEE addresses and two WWNs; one

for each port with the second IEEE address/WWN being the next successive

number of the first.
