Perform FC-specific tasks
For the Fibre Channel protocol, you configure the switches and determine the host port identifiers.
Configuring the FC switches - VMware
Configuring (zoning) the Fibre Channel (FC) switches enables the hosts to connect to the storage array and
limits the number of paths. You zone the switches using the management interface for the switches.
Before you begin
• You must have administrator credentials for the switches.
• You must have used your HBA utility to discover the WWPN of each host initiator port and of each
controller target port connected to the switch.
For details about zoning your switches, see the switch vendor's documentation.
You must zone by WWPN, not by physical port. Each initiator port must be in a separate zone with all of its
corresponding target ports.
Step 1. Log in to the FC switch administration program, and then select the zoning configuration option.
Step 2. Create a new zone that includes the first host initiator port and that also includes all of the target
ports that connect to the same FC switch as the initiator.
Step 3. Create additional zones for each FC host initiator port in the switch.
Step 4. Save the zones, and then activate the new zoning configuration.
Determining the host port WWPNs—FC
To configure FC zoning, you must determine the worldwide port name (WWPN) of each initiator port.
Step 1. Connect to the ESXi host using SSH or the ESXi shell.
Step 2. Run the following command:
esxcfg
-
scsidevs –a
Step 3. Record the initiator identifiers. The output will be similar to this example:
vmhba3 lpfc link-up fc.20000090fa05e848:10000090fa05e848 (0000:03:00.0)
