HSG80 Array Controller V8.7 Command Line Interface Reference Guide
CLI Command Descriptions
Changes the operating characteristics of a host connection. Each path between a Fibre
Channel adapter in a host computer and an active host port on a controller is a
connection.
This command adds the specified host connection to the table of known connections.
This table is maintained in the controller’s memory. The maximum table length is 96
connections; if the table contains 96 entries, new connections cannot be added unless
some old ones are deleted.
The SET connection-name command changes the operating parameters of the
specified host connection. A host connection is a specific instance of one host
connected to one port of one controller through one host adapter.

Parameters
