• Setting FC Worldwide Node Name
The default worldwide port name (WWPN) of each FC port should be

ports help the RAID system recognize all the FC ports with the same
WWPN as one device.
To set FC worldwide node name, click the WWNN button. Then select

using the same WWNN. Click Apply to save. The WWPN of all FC ports will
be synchronized the next time you start the RAID system.
