3par pesistent port

Post by pazzoide76 »

It's possible to implement NPIV in a 3par 7200 base system?
My system have 2 fc ports for node.(2 node in total 4 port)
I don't known if the storage it's compatible with the persistent port because I've found this:

Persistent port fail over is only supported on the following NPIV-compliant HBAs:

• HP 3PAR 4-port 4G FC
• Emulex 2-port 4G
• Emulex 4-port 8G FC
• QLogic CNA in FCoE mode
• QLogic 1G iSCSI
• QLogic CNA in 10G iSCSI modein the

from HP 3PAR Command Line Interface Administrator’s Manual HP 3PAR OS 3.1.2 pag 75.

Thanks

Hi,

You should see what type of FC controllers you have on your array. It is possible to see this from Management Console and from the Systems tab you should go to Ports and search for Fibre Channel Settings. For my system, a V800, I found out the controllers were Emulex LPe 12004 which is an Emulex 4-port 8Gbps which is on the list.
