Fibre Channel Adapter Installation for HP-UXInterpreting Lunpath Hardware Paths (HP-UX 11i v3)Chapter 118Target Node World Wide Name = 0x500805f300083890The LUN address for a Fibre Channel device is a 64-bit LUNid. The LUNid is composed of two bitsrepresenting the addressing method, fourteen bits representing the LUN number of the device, and 48reserved bits, as shown in the table:Since the LUN address is printed in hexadecimal, the first hexadecimal digit contains both the addressingmethod and the start of the LUN number. For example, the first 16 bits of the LUN address0x400f000000000000 is binary 0100000000001111. The leading 01 is theaddressing method (Flat SpaceAddressing ) and the remaining bits represent the LUN number (15). Thus, the LUN address0x400f000000000000 represents LUN number 15, using the Flat Space Addressing method. You can easilyperform this decoding by using the scsimgr command to display the LUN’s lunid attribute. For example:# scsimgr get_attr -H 0/2/1/0.0x500805f300083899.0x400f000000000000 -a lunidSCSI ATTRIBUTES FOR LUN PATH : 0/2/1/0.0x500805f300083899.0x400f000000000000name = lunidcurrent =0x400f000000000000 (LUN # 15, Flat Space Addressing)default =saved =The legacy hardware path format for Fibre Channel disks encodes the target port identifier and LUN id asvirtual hardware elements. It has the following format:HBA_path.domain.area.port.controller.target.lunThe domain represents the Fibre Channel switch, the area is the specific port on the Fibre Channel switchinto which the target is plugged. The domain, area, and port values are extracted from the target portidentifier as shown in the table:Table 1-6Addressing Method(2 bits)LUNNumber(14 bits)Reserved(48 bits)00 – Peripheral Device Addressing01 – Volume Set Addressing (Flat Space Addressing)10 – Logical Unit Addressing0x00-0x3fff 0x00Table 1-7Domain(8 bits)Area(8 bits)Port(8 bits)0-255 0-255 0-255
