HP XP P9000 for Compatible High Perf FICON Connectivity Software - Manual (Page 50)

Figure 13 Network B (many-to-many connections are established between HBAs and ports)
If many-to-many connections are established between HBAs and ports, take the next steps:
1.
Find WWNs of host bus adapters. Before using Performance Control, you must find the WWN
(Worldwide Name) of each host bus adapter in host servers. WWNs are 16-digit hexadecimal
numbers used to identify host bus adapters. For details on how to find WWNs, see the HP
XP P9000 Provisioning for Open Systems User Guide.
2. Ensure that all host bus adapters connected to ports in the storage system are monitored. Use
the WWN tab of the Performance Control main window to define which port is connected to
which host bus adapter. Place host bus adapters connected to each port below the Monitor
icons.
In network B, each of the four ports is connected to three host bus adapters (wwn01, wwn02,
and wwn03). Place the host bus adapter icons of wwn01, wwn02, and wwn03 below the
Monitor icons for all the four port icons.
The resulting definitions on the window are as follows:

For more detailed instruction, see “Setting priority for ports on the storage system” (page 54) .
Performance Control is unable to monitor and control the performance of hosts whose host
bus adapters are placed below the Non-Monitor icon.
