66 CLI commands for the XP128/XP1024/XP10000/XP12000
list port
Description This command displays the port configuration. Each port in the disk array has the following
information associated with it:
• Portname. Ports in the disk array are identified by their portname (for example, CL1-A and
CL1-B).
• Type. The type of port. On the XP128/XP1024/XP10000/XP12000, the only port type is Fibre
Channel.
• Address. The port’s AL-PA address. This column displays Arbitrated Loop Physical Addresses and
loop ID values (for example, EF(0) and E8(1)).
• Topology. The topology used by the port. This column displays the Fibre Channel switch status
(ON or OFF) and the connection type (FC-AL or point-to-point).
• WWN. The port’s worldwide name (WWN).
• Channel Speed. This is the channel speed of the port. The XP128/XP1024/XP10000/XP12000
supports four channel speed modes: 1GB fiber, 2GB fiber, 4GB fiber and auto mode. If the port
is in auto mode, the disk array automatically selects 1GB, 2GB or 4GB fiber mode.
• Security. This displays the LUN security switch status for the port. Security can be either ON or
OFF. If the security switch is ON, each WWN can access the LUNs available to the host group it
belongs to. If the switch is OFF, host access for all host groups except the default host group is
disabled. If you are using firmware version 21.06.22 or later, you can delete host groups (except
for host group 0), WWNs, or LUN paths with or without the port security turned on. Only
WWNs in the default host group can access the LUNs in that group.
• HostGroupNickname. Host groups are used to organize the types of hosts that can access the
LUNs. The XP128/XP1024 supports up to 128 host groups for each port; the
XP10000/XP12000 can have a maximum of 256 host groups for each port. Each host group is
identified by a nickname. The host group nickname is unique for a port. Also, the first host group
in every port is the default host group, which is always accessible irrespective of the security
switch status.
• HostMode. Host mode is based on the types of host operating systems. Each host group has a
one host mode, and only hosts of the one operating system should be members of a host group.
Host group members can access the LUNs assigned to that host group.
