Configuring Ports on the HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage for a Fabric Connection
1. To determine whether a port has already been configured for a host port in fabric mode, issue
showport -par on the HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage.
2. If the port has not been configured, take the port offline before configuring it for connection
to a host server. To take the port offline, issue the HP 3PAR OS CLI command controlport
offline <node:slot:port>.
3. To configure the port to the host server, issue controlport config host -ct point
<node:slot:port>, where -ct point indicates that the connection type specified is a
fabric connection. For example:
Creating the Host Definition
NOTE: See the HP 3PAR Command Line Interface Reference or the HP 3PAR Management Console
User’s Guide for complete details on using the controlport, createhost, and showhost
commands.

Connecting the HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage to the StoreAll 9300
Connect the HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage to the StoreAll 9300 directly or to the fabric. This set of
tasks includes physically cabling the HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage to the StoreAll 9300 system or
fabric.
Setting Up and Zoning the Fabric
Fabric zoning controls which Fibre Channel end-devices have access to each other on the fabric.
Zoning also isolates the host server and HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage ports from Registered State
Change Notifications (RSCNs) that are irrelevant to these ports.
You can set up fabric zoning by associating the device World Wide Names (WWNs) or the switch
ports with specified zones in the fabric. Although you can use either the WWN method or the port
zoning method with the HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage, the WWN zoning method is recommended
because the zone survives the changes of switch ports when cables are moved around on a fabric.
