Getting Started
2.1

Section 2

Introduction
SANsurfer FC HBA CLI operates in one of the following modes:

Interactive mode. SANsurfer FC HBA CLI starts, then waits for and executes input commands until terminated by the user. Use this mode to perform multiple operations. Non-interactive mode. SANsurfer FC HBA CLI starts, performs functions defined by the list of parameters provided, then terminates. In this mode, the application is executed from a script file or when you want to perform a single operation.

In both modes, SANsurfer FC HBA CLI is not case sensitive. However, file names in some operating systems are case sensitive; in this case, SANsurfer FC HBA CLI is case sensitive for that particular file.

Bind Targets
In interactive mode, select the Set Target Persistent Binding option from the submenu. The Target Persistent BindingBind Menu displays. From this menu, you can select specific devices to bind, or you can bind all devices. If target persistent binding information was saved in persistent storage and the machine is restarted, the driver reads the information saved in persistent storage during start up. SANsurfer FC HBA CLI then reads this information from the driver and sets the target IDs accordingly. The Set Target Persistent Binding option finds the devices seen by the OS. The target ID is a number between the range of 0255. In Windows, the target IDs have to be contiguous distinct numbers starting at 0. In Linux and Solaris, target IDs can be any number between 0 and 255 (256 for Linux) as long as there are no duplicate target IDs per HBA. In Solaris SPARC, target IDs can be assigned to both configured and unconfigured ports. Valid target ID values are in the range 0255. The IDs are validated before they are saved. Duplicate target IDs are not allowed. In Windows 2000, Windows Server 2003, and Enterprise Server, target IDs can be assigned only to ports that will be configured. Valid targets ID values are in the range 0(n1), where n is the number of targets attached to the HBA.

Once persistent binding information for the targets is saved, the ports retain the assigned target IDs across reboots. NOTE: Be sure to set persistent binding for every target that the HBA sees; otherwise, only the persistently bound target is visible, and all other targets are invisible to the HBA when the system reboots.

If the BIOS is disabled, you are prompted:

4 Command Line Options Boot Device (Command Line Option -E)

Boot device disabled. Enable boot device?

In Windows 2000, Windows Server 2003, Enterprise Server, and Solaris SPARC, if the HBA port does not have a boot device selected, a list of attached targets is displayed. The target list also includes a NULL (zero) target (default mode). In default mode, the HBA BIOS selects the first device with a LUN 0 as the boot device. If you select a non-NULL target, the menu displays the list of LUNs. After you select a LUN as the boot device, you are prompted to confirm the selection. In Solaris SPARC, a list of targets using the WWNN and WWPN is displayed. When you select a target, SANsurfer FC HBA CLI searches the persistent binding list to see if a target ID has been bound to this target. If none is found, you are prompted for a target ID. After you enter a target ID, the list of LUNs is displayed. Select one LUN as the boot device. NOTE: The LUN must always be an open Solaris boot device. The target ID is determined by the boot part name. Once selected and saved, the target ID is the value used by the OS to determine the boot device.

Non-interactive Mode
Type the following command to select a boot device for the HBA:
# scli -E (<HBA Port No.> | <HBA WWPN>) <Target WWNN> <Target WWPN> <LUN ID>

Where:
HBA Port No. = HBA number from HBA general information HBA WWPN = World wide port name of the HBA Target WWNN = World wide node name of the target Target WWPN = World wide port name of the target LUN ID = ID of the LUN

SANsurfer FC HBA CLI checks all parameters to verify that the HBA, targets, and LUNs are valid. The <Target WWPN>, <Target WWNN> and <LUN ID> inputs can be all zeroes, which sets the default BIOS boot device on the specific HBA. For example:
# scli -E (<HBA Port No.> | <HBA WWPN>) (ENABLE | 0 0 0)

If you select an HBA with no target or a target with no LUN, SANsurfer FC HBA CLI displays an error message and aborts. In Solaris SPARC, assigning the target ID to the target of the boot-selected LUN is equivalent to the target persistent binding described in section 4.7. Therefore, if the target is persistently bound, its boot device entry must have the same target ID. For all operating systems, if the HBA already has boot devices defined and they are different from the ones in the command parameter or menu selection, you are prompted to confirm the boot device selection:
The HBA already has a boot device(s) selected. Do you want to replace it with the new one?

To perform a loopback test with custom parameters, type the following command:
# scli -KL (<HBA Port No.> | <HBA WWPN>) [(<Parameter Name> | <Parameter Alias>) <Parameter Value>]

Sections 4.16.2.1 through 4.16.2.5 describe the parameters and their default values. The following examples perform 500 loopback tests with a test increment of 10, a data pattern of FFh, and a data size of 8 bytes. The test will stop if an error occurs.
# scli -KL <HBA WWPN> DP FF DS 8 TC 500 TI 10 OE 1 # scli -KL <HBA Port No.> DP FF DS 8 TC 500 TI 10 OE 1

You do not have to set each parameter for the loopback test. If you do not specify a parameter in the command line, the current parameter value is used. For example, the following command sets the data pattern to FFh and uses the current values for the other parameters:
# scli -KL <HBA Port No.> DP FF

This option is valid only in non-interactive mode. This option can be used with all non-interactive mode options that have a corresponding interactive mode option (see table 2-1). The option must be the first or last command in the command line.

To output result and status messages into a file, type -O, followed by the file name. For example:
# scli -L 2 -S -O system

If the file name is system, then all of the messages are locked in the following locations:

Windows OS: syslog.log in the current directory Red Hat/SuSE Linux/PPC/MAC OS X: /var/log/messages Solaris SPARC: /var/adm/messages

If the file already exists, the new messages are appended to the current file.

Silent Mode (Command Line Option -S)


NOTE:

This option is valid only in non-interactive mode. This option can be used with all non-interactive mode options that have a corresponding interactive mode option (see table 2-1). The option must be the first or last command in the command line.

In non-interactive mode, result and status messages generated by the application are displayed by default unless suppressed by silent mode. This option is usually combined with the -O option (see section 4.20) so that the output is saved in a file and not displayed on screen. For example:
# scli -I ALL -S -O output.txt
