Fibre address

In fabric environments, the port addresses are assigned automatically. In arbitrated loop environments,

set the port addresses by selecting a unique arbitrated loop physical address (AL-PA) or loop ID for

each port. For specific values, refer to the HP StorageWorks XP LUN Manager User's Guide applicable

to your array.

Set each array port to FABRIC ON or OFF with connections of POINT-TO-POINT or FC-AL as shown

in the following table and figures. For detailed topology information, refer to the HP StorageWorks

SAN Design Reference Guide at:
