Figure 3-15 Note WWPN
Now you have the WWPN for HBA port that will be Zoned to the host port on Storage.
8. Assuming that you have created Hosts (as described in 3.5.1, “Configuring the LUN for
SAN Boot”), you can find the WWPN of the host port on IBM DS8000 Subsystem in the
Management GUI by following the steps in 3.8, “Installation of SUSE Linux Enterprise
Server 11 SP 1 for SAN Boot”.
3.4.5 Configuring QLogic adapter for SAN Boot
Follow the below procedure for configuring the QLogic adapters:
1. Power up Server containing the HBA.
2. Follow Steps 1 through 4 of the section 3.4.4, “Finding QLogic WWPN” on page 134.
3. Attach the cables and configure the zones.
4. Configure your host with the WWPN associated with your card, as described into 3.6,
“DS8000 Subsystem Host creation” on page 153
5. Create and assign the LUN for your host, as described into 3.5, “DS8000 Storage
provisioning” on page 149.
6. From the Configuration Settings screen(Figure 3-13) of your host Select Scan Fibre
Devices. You should see the DS8000 Subsystem’s host-port’s WWPN, as shown in
Figure 3-21. However, if you are not able to find the LUN, as shown Figure 3-16, recheck
your cables, zones and the configuration for your host on DS8000 management interface.
