PAGE 352
A–NIC Partitioning (NPAR) Overview What is NPAR? What is NPAR? NIC Partitioning (NPAR) provides the ability to create multiple physical functions on the PCIe bus that share a single physical port. Each physical function is a PCI endpoint (PCIe) that can have a device driver attached to it. The NPAR feature in QLogic adapters allows you to partition a single 10GbE NIC port into up to four individual partitions with user-configurable bandwidth and interface type (personality).
PAGE 353
A–NIC Partitioning (NPAR) Overview NIC Partitioning Options By default, NPAR functionality is disabled on the adapters, having only two Ethernet functions enabled. Depending on the feature personality mapping supported on the adapter, you can enable additional Ethernet or storage functions. The PCI function number assignment is as follows:  Functions 0 and 1 are always NIC, function 0 for port 1 and function 1 for port 2; any of the other functions can be individually enabled or disabled.
PAGE 354
A–NIC Partitioning (NPAR) Overview NIC Partitioning Options The following diagram (Figure A-1) shows the default NPAR function settings. Figure A-1.
PAGE 355
A–NIC Partitioning (NPAR) Overview Personality Changes The following diagram (Figure ) shows the possible configurations. Figure A-2. NPAR Configuration Options — Personalities Personality Changes Based on your operating environment, you can use your preferred management tool to change or disable PCI functions on either physical port. Using this feature lets you divide each physical port into up to four partitions, configured to support one of the following PCI function types: NIC, FCoE, or iSCSI.

PAGE 357
A–NIC Partitioning (NPAR) Overview eSwitch NPAR Quality of Service (QoS) allows NIC and iSCSI partitions to each allocate a minimum guaranteed portion of the available bandwidth. However, the user interface tools do not support setting the bandwidth limits for iSCSI partition. This means that the iSCSI partition may not get the desired bandwidth.
PAGE 358
A–NIC Partitioning (NPAR) Overview NPAR Setup NPAR Setup This section provides NPAR reference tables you can use when configuring NIC partitions using QConvergeConsole CLI. Default Settings Before configuring NIC partitions, the QLogic Adapter appears as a simple dual-port 10GbE adapter with NPAR settings shown in the following table. Table A-2.

A–NIC Partitioning (NPAR) Overview NPAR Configuration Parameters and Setup Tools b Maximum bandwidth: Maximum allowed bandwidth, specified as a percentage of the link speed. The queue’s rate will not be allowed to exceed the specified value, even if excess bandwidth is available on the physical port link. The total across all partitions may not be greater than the maximum link bandwidth.

User’s Guide QConvergeConsole CLI 2400, 2500, 3200, 8100, 8200 Series Because a path is a combination of an adapter and a target port, it is distinct from another path if it is accessed through a different adapter or it is accessing a different target port. Consequently, when switching from one path to another, the driver might be selecting a different adapter (initiator), a different target port, or both. This is important to the driver when selecting the proper method of failover notification.
