HP 3PAR Management Console 4.5.1 Software User Guide

DescriptionFieldGroup
Rate that data can be transferred over the port (1 Gbps, 2
Gbps or 4 Gbps). When there is no specified value, no
connection exists.
Rate
Type of device that the port is connected to. Free, Disk, Host,
Peer, or InServ.
Connected Device Type
Name of device that the port is connected to, for example,
host1, cage0.
Connected Device
Port firmware mode setting. Ports in Initiator mode are
connected to drive cages and ports in Target mode export
Mode
to hosts. Suspended mode is for target ports that have not
yet been initialized by the system (rare). Peer mode is for
Ethernet ports.
Current state of the port.State
The throughput in KB/s.Total Data ThroughputResources
The type of port connection.Connection ModeSettings
Connection type or port connection setting (Loop, Point, or
Loop-point). When the port is set to Loop-point, both loop
and point-to-point connections are enabled.
Connection Type
Data transfer rate setting (for example, 1 Gbps). Auto
indicates that the system automatically selects the rate.
Configured Rate
Maximum rate of connection from the port.Max Rate
Indicates whether Fibre Channel service Class 2 is Disabled,
Ack 1 or Ack 0.
Class 2
For fabric attached ports, indicates the VLUN change
notification setting. When set to Enabled, notices are
VCN
generated and sent to the fabric controller. When set to
Disabled, no notification is sent.
Indicates whether the node's WWN is Enabled or Disabled.
Not available for systems running HP 3PAR OS 2.2.4 or
earlier.
Unique Node WWN
If Disabled, each I/O generates a separate interrupt to the
HBA port driver rather than generating one interrupt for
Interrupt Coalesce
multiple I/O completion. Not available for systems running
HP 3PAR OS 2.2.4 or earlier.
Type of connection (Private Loop, Public Loop, or Point-Point).TopologyFibre Channel Settings
Identifies which Fibre Channel classes of service are enabled
(2, 3, or 2/3). 2/3 indicates that both Class 2 and Class 3
are enabled.
Class
Model of the Fibre Channel adapter that contains the port
(for example, QLOGIC 2302).
Adaptor Type
Indicates whether port mode change from initiator to target
or vice versa is Allowed or Prohibited. This setting is
configured using the HP 3PAR CLI command controlport.
Mode Change
The MAC address of the Ethernet node. (Displayed only for
FCoE protocol.)
Ethernet Node MAC
The Primary Flow Control (PFC) mask. (Displayed only for
FCoE protocol.)
PFC Mask
The number of hosts connected to the port. This is only
displayed if the port is connected to hosts.
