Dell PowerVault MD3420 - Manual (Page 172)

Syntax
create hostPort identifier="wwid"
userLabel="portLabel"
host="hostName"
interfaceType=SAS
Parameters
Parameter Description
identifier WWID of the HBA host port. You must put
quotation marks (" ") around the WWID.
userLabel Name to give the new HBA host port. You must put
quotation marks (" ") around the port label.
host Name of the host for which you are defining an
HBA host port. You must put quotation marks (" ")
around the host name.
NOTE: An HBA host port is a physical
connection on a host adapter that resides
within a host system. An HBA host port
provides host access to the virtual disks in a
storage array. If the host bus adapter has only
one physical connection (one host port), the
terms host port and host bus adapter are
synonymous.
interfaceType The identifier for the type of interface for the host
port.
You must enter SAS. If you do not enter SAS, the
command attempts to use an invalid type of
interface. A SAS selection requires an 8-byte
WWID.
NOTE: You can use any combination of alphanumeric characters, hyphens, and underscores for the
names. Command names can have a maximum of 30 characters. If you exceed the maximum
character limit, replace square brackets ([ ]) with angle brackets (< >) to overcome this limitation.
