HP 3PAR Windows 2012 and Windows Server 2008 Implementation Guide

3 Configuring the HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage for FCoE

Setting Up the FCoE Switch, FCoE Initiator, and FCoE target ports

FCoE target support has been added in HP 3PAR OS 3.1.3. Connect the Windows host FCoE

initiator ports and the HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage FCoE target ports to the FCoE switches.

NOTE: FCoE switch VLANs and routing setup and configuration is beyond the scope of this

document. Consult your switch manufacturer's documentation for instructions of how to set up

VLANs and routing.

1. CNA ports on HP 3PAR StoreServ 10000 and HP 3PAR StoreServ 7000 arrays require a

one-time configuration using the controlport command.

For Example on a new FCoE config:

# showport

N:S:P Mode State ----Node_WWN---- -Port_WWN/HW_Addr- Type Protocol

0:3:1 suspended config_wait - - cna -

0:3:2 suspended config_wait - - cna -

# showport

N:S:P Brand Model Rev Firmware Serial HWType

0:3:1 QLOGIC QLE8242 58 0.0.0.0 PCGLT0ARC1K3U4 CNA

0:3:2 QLOGIC QLE8242 58 0.0.0.0 PCGLT0ARC1K3U4 CNA

2. If State=config_wait or Firmware=0.0.0.0, use the controlport config fcoe

<n:s:p> command to configure. Use the showport and showport -i commands to verify

the configuration setting.

For example:

# controlport config fcoe 0:3:1

# controlport config fcoe 0:3:2

# showport 0:3:1 0:3:2

N:S:P Mode State ----Node_WWN---- -Port_WWN/HW_Addr- Type Protocol Label
