Checking Registration of Fibre Channel Devices in Name Server
Entering the "nsshow" command on the console allows current fibre channel devices information
registered in the name server for 8G FC Switch to be known.
Type "nsshow" command on the console.
Sample screen displayed by "nsshow" command

The Local Name Server has 1 entry }
IMPORTANT:
Check that the "nsshow" command can show various information on fibre channel
devices linked up to 8G FC Switch.
If the information on a connected device does not appear, the device, SFP+ module or
FC cable may be defected.
For details of the displayed information, refer to the User’s Guides of the connected
fibre channel devices.
Information displayed by "nsshow" command
Item Display
Indicates port status.
" N," "NL", and "U" mean N_Port, NL_Port and unknown status, respectively.
Type
PID
Indicates the 24-bit ID of each fibre channel device.
Consists of a 6-digit value in the format of "xxyyzz" as follows:
xx: Domain ID of switch
yy: Port number (hexadecimal notation)
zz: Loop ID ("00" in fabric connection)
PortName
Indicates the world wide port name (WWPn) of each connected fibre channel device.
NodeName
Indicates the world wide node name (WWNn) of each connected fibre channel device.
Port Index
Port Index (decimal notation)
NOTE:
"nsshow" command allows you to know WWPn’s of fibre channel devices connected to
8G FC Switch. WWPn’s can be used for various settings of peripherals.
IMPORTANT:
Depending on the type of the OS you use, "PID" has some influence on the hardware
path of the logic with which the OS recognizes disk array units. Take sufficient note on
the PID if a job is done to change the PID after system operation is started.
