Persistent binding

port_id

ID of the port for which you want to display target rate limiting settings. This
could be the PWWN, port hardware path, or user-specified port name. This
could also be the adapter-index/port-index. For example, to specify adapter 1,
port 1 you would use 1/1 as the port identification.

Use the following BCU command to display target rate limiting enabled status and default
speed.

port --query <port-id>

where:

port_id

ID of the port for which you want to display port information.

Use the following command to determine operating speed of the remote port and target rate
limiting enforcement.

rport --query <port_id> <rpwwn> [-l <lpwwn>]

where:

port_id

Specifies the ID of the port for which you want to query attributes.

rpwwn

Remote PWWN. You can obtain the RPWWN from the BCU rport --list
<port_id> command.

-l lpwwn

Logical PWWN. This is an optional argument. If the -l lpwwn argument is not
specified, the base port is used.

Determining settings through HCM

Launch the Remote Port Properties panel in HCM as follows to display information on target rate
limiting and QoS for the remote port.

1. From the device tree, select a remote port (target or initiator).

2. Click the Remote Port Properties tab in the right pane.

The Remote Port Properties panel displays.

Persistent binding

Persistent binding is a feature of adapters that enables you to permanently assign a system SCSI
target ID to a specific Fibre Channel (FC) device, even though the device’s ID on the FC loop may be
different each time the FC loop initializes. Persistent binding is available in the Windows and
VMware environments only.

Use HCM features or BCU commands to display target ID mapping for an adapter port.
