Associating an HBA with a Host
ATTENTION
Discovered information overwrites your user settings.
To associate an HBA with a Host, complete the following steps.
1. Right-click an HBA icon and select Host Port Mapping.
The Host Port Mapping dialog box displays.
2. Select the Host to which you want to assign HBAs in the Hosts table or click New Host to create
a new Host.
3. Select the HBA from the HBAs table on the left and click the right arrow.
The HBA displays in the Hosts table. The HBA is now associated with the selected Host.
4. Click OK to save your changes and close the Host Port Mapping dialog box.
On the Connectivity Map, the HBA displays in the Host.
Importing HBA-to-Host mapping
The Host Port Mapping dialog box enables you to import externally created HBA ports-to-Host
mapping information into the application. The imported file must be in CSV format. The first row
must contain the headers (wwn, name) for the file.
Example
wwn,name
20:00:00:00:C9:69:D5:27, s1
20:00:00:05:1E:0A:35:0E, s2
When the import is complete a result summary displays with the information listed in Table 11.
