Check the
NPIV Option
line.
3.
Place in Offline (C) status the path that goes through the Fibre Channel switch to
be replaced.
Depending on the NPIV option setting for the
dlmodmset
utility checked in step
2, execute one of the following commands:
• If the NPIV option is set to
off
:
Specify the HBA adapter number and bus number, and then execute the
command shown below. The following example shows how to place the path
in Offline (C) status when the path goes through an HBA whose HBA
adapter number is
08
and whose bus number is
11
:
# /usr/DynamicLinkManager/bin/dlnkmgr offline -hba 08.11
• If the NPIV option is set to
on
:
Use the
fscsi
number found in step 1 to execute the command below. The
following example shows how to place the path in Offline (C) status when
the path goes through
fscsi
number
1
(
fscsi1
):
# /usr/DynamicLinkManager/bin/dlnkmgr offline -hba 00.01
4.
Execute the following command to delete the path that goes through the Fibre
Channel switch to be replaced:
Specify the device name (
fscsi
device) of the HBA connected to the Fibre
Channel switch that is to be replaced to delete the path (where n is the instance
number of the
fscsi
device).
# rmpath -p fscsi
n
-d
Because the
fscsi
number found in step 1 is
1
(
fscsi1
), the result is as follows:
# rmpath -p fscsi1 -d
5.
Execute the following command to get the name of the parent device:
# lsdev -C -l fscsin -F parent
