Enabling GbE ports

By default, GbE ports are enabled on an HP StorageWorks B-Series iSCSI Director Blade installed in the

HP StorageWorks 4/256 SAN Director. However, if you insert the HP StorageWorks B-Series iSCSI Director

Blade into a slot that was previously occupied by an FR-18i blade, GbE ports are disabled.

Before enabling the physical iSCSI interface, enable the iSCSI gateway service as described in ”Enabling

the iSCSI gateway service” on page 309.

NOTE: The GbE port number <port_number> below is entered geX; where X is numeral from 0 through 7.

For example ge1 (see Figure 39 on page 309).

1. Connect and log in to the switch.

2. Enter the portCfgShow command with the blade slot number and GbE port number parameters to

display the Persistent Disable setting of the port.

switch:admin> portcfgshow 10/ge0

Mode: ISCSI

3. Take the appropriate action based on the Persistent Disable setting:

• If it is set to OFF, proceed to step 4.

• If it is set to ON, enter the portCfgPersistentEnable command with the slot number and

GbE port number.

switch:admin> portcfgpersistentenable 10/ge0

4. Enter the portCfgShow command with the slot number and GbE port number to verify that the port is

persistently enabled.

In the following sample output, the Persistent Disable setting is set to OFF.
