Using Advanced Features of RAID Admin

Locating the WWPN With Fibre Channel Utility

To find the WWPN for a port on your host system’s fibre channel card using Fibre
Channel Utility:

1

Copy the Fibre Channel Utility application from the “Mac OS X Utilities” folder on the
Xserve RAID Admin Tools disc to your host computer, or use Software Update to get the
latest version of the application.

Note: You must use this application on the host computer to locate the WWPN for each
port on the Apple Fibre Channel PCI Card in that computer.

2

Open Fibre Channel Utility on the host computer.

3

Select the port for which you want the WWPN in the list on the left side of the window.

The application displays the World Wide Port Name (on the right side of the window),
as well as the node name and the slot in which the fibre channel card is installed.

Note: The application locates a WWPN for each of the two ports on the fibre channel
card. You may need to experiment by using both of these names to map the arrays you
want to show on certain host computers and mask the arrays you want to hide.
