HP 3PAR Citrix Implementation Guide

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. To take the port offline, issue the HP 3PAR OS command line interface (CLI) command
controlport offline <node:slot:port>.
# controlport offline 1:5:1
3. To configure the port to the host, issue controlport config host -ct point
<node:slot:port>, where -ct point indicates that the connection type specified is a
fabric connection. For example:
# controlport config host -ct point 1:5:1
4. Reset the port by issuing the controlport rst <node:slot:port> command.
# controlport rst 1:5:1
Creating the Host Definition
Before connecting the Citrix host to the HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage, create a host definition that
specifies a valid host persona for each HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage that is to be connected to a
host HBA port through a fabric or a direct connection.
1. To create host definitions, issue the createhost [options] <hostname> [<WWN>...]
command.
In the following example, the generic indicates that the default persona is used.
# createhost -persona 1 Citrixhost 1122334455667788 1122334455667799
