5. Turn on the switches, if not done previously.
Plugging in the FC Cable and Verifying Connections
6. Plug the Fibre Channel cable from the first host bus adapter into the switch.
Enter the
SHOW CONNECTIONS command to view the connection table:
HSG> SHOW CONNECTIONS
Note: Although an IBM operating system entry exists in the CLI and SWCC for the
Fibre Channel connection, use the setting AIX_CAMBEX for operation with your IBM
host. The IBM setting may cause problems when LUNs are not available to AIX or
during controller failover.
The first connection has one or more entries in the connection table. Each
connection has a default name of the form !NEWCONxx, where xx is a number
representing the order in which the connection was added to the connection table.
For an explanation about why there may be multiple connections shown for
one adapter, see "Determining Connections", page 41.
7. Rename the connections to something meaningful to the system and easy to
remember. For example, to assign the name ANGEL1A1 to connection
!NEWCON01, enter:
RENAME !NEWCON01 ANGEL1A1
For a recommended naming convention, see "Naming Connections", page 41.
8. Specify the operating system for the connection:
SET ANGEL1A1 OPERATING_SYSTEM=AIX_CAMBEX
