Miscellaneous
V6.4 will support direct attached hosts via FC with SCORE/RPQ only
– Full support to be added in later release
Requires changes to host properties
– In the current release all direct attach host status will report as “degraded”
– When fully support direct attached host status will report as “active/inactive”
– Will be status of “offline” if not connected
The status field will be “online” if the host has an active login in each I/O group where
it can see Volumes mapped to it
Direct Attach hosts can only use FC ports that are not required for intra-cluster
connectivity or SAN use for hosts, disk or replication
– In a single control enclosure Storwize V7000 there will be 8 ports available
– A clustered Storwize V7000 will not currently support direct attach FC hosts
The view “lsportfc” will report direct or fabric attachment of the port
No changes to “lshbaportcandidate, mkhost or addhostport” cmds
