Parameters
setadapterportconfig (OCe14000–Series Only)
Syntax
elxvcpcmd.exe v=10.192.000.000 u=root p=vmware h=10.192.203.195
SetAdapterPortConfig <MAC|WWPN> defaults
or
hbacmd SetAdapterPortConfig <MAC|WWPN> p0=P0Config [p1=P1Config]
[p2=P2Config][p3=P3Config] [pid=ProfileID] [mctype=Type] [NParEpMode=state]
Description
The SetAdapterPortConfig command configures the function protocol assignments for
all ports on an adapter. Additionally use this command to restore the adapter to its
factory default profile and settings. The number of ports and function protocol
assignments specified in this command depends upon the available ports, storage
mode (mixed or concurrent) and multichannel/NPar state. Depending upon the
presence of NParEP on a host, this command may allow the configuration of more
functions per port than is available on the PCI bus. This means a lesser number of
functions per port than are configured by this command may be noticed after rebooting
the host.
Enabling/Disabling Multichannel
Use the Type parameter to enable and disable multichannel. When enabling
multichannel, the additional function protocols must be specified for the extra channels
that are not available when multichannel is disabled.
Examples for Enabling and Disabling Multichannel
To enable multichannel:
elxvcpcmd.exe v=10.192.000.000 u=root p=vmware h=10.192.000.000
setadapterportconfig 00-00-c9-12-34-56 p0=nic,iscsi,nic,nic
p1=nic,fcoe,nic,nic p2=nic,fcoe,nic,nic p3=nic,iscsi,nic,nic mctype=umc
To disable multichannel:
elxvcpcmd.exe v=10.192.000.000 u=root p=vmware h=10.192.000.000
setadapterportconfig 00-00-c9-12-34-56 p0=nic,iscsi p1= nic,fcoe p2=nic,fcoe
p3=nic,iscsi mctype=none
Syntax Rules

port (e.g. p0 = nic, iscsi would cause an error).
