bootLunCfg

Transparently configures the boot LUN for an HBA.

Synopsis

bootluncfg --add HBA_WWN PWWN LUN_ID

bootluncfg --delete HBA_WWN [PWWN LUN_ID]

bootluncfg --show

bootluncfg --help

Description

Use this command to configure the boot LUN for an HBA.

Existing fabric-based boot LUN discovery allows the host's boot LUN information to be stored in the
fabric zone database by using a zone name that contains the PWWN of an HBA port. The zone
members consist of storage target PWWN and LUN ID.

This command provides a simplified and transparent procedure for configuring the boot LUN. Once
configured, the HBA boot code queries the zone member list for the zone name matching the HBA
PWWN to determine the boot target and LUN.

Note

The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric or Admin Domain restrictions that may
be in place. Refer to chapter 1, "Using Fabric OS commands" and Appendix A, "Command
Availability" for details.

Operands

This command has the following operands:

HBA_WWN

Specifies the WWN of the HBA port connecting to the boot LUN. This is a
hexadecimal number, for example, 10:00:00:000:05:1e:41:9a:cb.

PWWN

Specifies the WWN of the remote storage target's port. For example,
50:00:00:05:1e:41:9a:ca. This operand is optional.

LUN_ID

Specifies the hexadecimal LUN identification. The LUN ID is represented as
an eight-byte value (four-level LUN addressing), for example,
09AABBCCDDEEFF00. This operand is optional.

add

Configures the specified HBA (HBA_WWN) to boot from the specified LUN
(LUN_WWN) accessible through the Target PWWN (PWWN).

.delete

Removes the mapping for the HBA (HBA_PWWN) to boot from the LUN
(LUN_ID) accessible through the Target Port (PWWN).

.show

Displays all configured HBA to Port/LUN Mappings.

.help

Displays the command usage.

Examples

To configure a boot LUN:

switch:admin>

bootluncfg --add 11:22:ab:44:44:ff:44:ca 1b:6c:55:55:55:3a:55:ff 9abc345fa1112410

Operation Successful

To remove an HBA to Port/LUN mapping:

switch:admin>

bootluncfg --delete 11:22:ab:44:44:ff:44:ca 1b:6c:55:55:55:3a:55:ff 9abc345fa1112410
