R (continued from previous cell)
If one or more WWNs are
associated with the connectivity unit
via other management methods, one
of them
should
be used for
fcConnUnitGlobalId. If there is not a
WWN assigned specifically to the
connectivity unit, there is some merit,
though not a requirement, to using a
WWN assigned to (one of) its
permanently attached FC/LAN
interface(s). This cannot risk
uniqueness, though. As a
counterexample, if your agent runs
in a host and the host has an HBA, it
is quite possible that agent, host, and
HBA will all be distinct connectivity
units, so the host and agent cannot
use the WWN of the HBA. Another
example: If your hub has a built-in
Ethernet port, it might be reasonable
for the hub to use its LAN address
(prefixed with the appropriate NAA)
as its fcConnUnitId. But if the
Ethernet were a replaceable PCCard,
the hub should have an independent
ID.
FcConnUnitTy
pe
FcUnitType switch(4) R The type of this connectivity unit.
FcConnUnitN
umports
Unsigned32 Number of ports
from
PROD_CNFG.
R Number of physical ports in the
connectivity unit
(internal/embedded, external).
FcConnUnitSt
ate
INTEGER online and
coming-online
will indicate
online state (2),
and offline and
going-offline
will indicate
offline state (3).
R This object reports the overall state of
the connectivity unit. The meaning of
all values is essentially
self-explanatory. Any of these values
may occur with any of the
fcConnUnitStatus values.
The values are defined as follows:
unknown (1), online (2), offline (3).
