Fabric-based boot LUN discovery
4
•
The “member” command must be specially coded values for the target PWWN and LUN
identification (for example, 06:00:00:02:DD:EE:FF:00).
To obtain the zone name and member values, you will run the BCU boot --blunZone command
from your host system’s command line.
Use the following steps to configure fabric-based boot LUN discovery.
1. Set the adapter’s BIOS configuration to automatic discovery of the boot LUN from the fabric
using one of the following interfaces:
•
Brocade BIOS Configuration Utility
Adapter Settings > Boot LUN > Fabric Discovered
•
HCM
Basic Port Configuration > Boot-over-SAN > Fabric Discovered
•
BCU
bios --enable <port_id> -o auto
The command output will contain the proper encoding and be in the exact format for the zone
name and member commands.
2. Enter the following BCU command to provide the zone name and member for the switch
commands.
bcu boot --blunZone -c <cfg> -p <port_wwn> -r <rport_wwn> -l <lun_id | lun#>
where:
c cfg Specifies boot LUN (use -c BLUN).
p port_WWN The hexadecimal WWN of the adapter port connecting to the boot LUN. For
example, 10:00:00:05:1e:41:9a:cb.
r rport_WWN The hexadecimal WWN of the remote storage target’s port. For example,
50:00:00:05:1e:41:9a:ca.
l lun_id | lun# The hexadecimal LUN identification. You can provide this as a hexadecimal
one-Byte value or an eight-Byte value (four-level LUN addressing). For
example, an eight-Byte value could be 09AABBCCDDEEFF00.
NOTE
Enter boot --blunZone without operands to display the command format.
For example, enter the following:
bcu boot --blunZone -c BLUN -p 10:00:00:05:1e:41:9a:cb -r
50:00:00:05:1e:41:9a:ca -l 09AABBCCDDEEFF00
The command output will contain the proper encoding for the zone name and member
commands. As an example, refer to the following output.
"BFA_100000051E419ACB_BLUN","00:00:00:00:50:00:00:05;
00:00:00:01:1e:41:9a:ca; 00:00:00:02:DD:EE:FF:00; 00:00:00:03:09:AA:BB:CC"
3. Enter the following command to launch configuration mode.
switch# config t
