Re: [Power9 with Direct Attached V50x0

Just to clarify, when "enabled" the storwize forces everything (host and
node traffic) thru the NPIV wwpns, and they don't work without a switch so
in a direct attach situation you end up like this. What's weird to me is
that you said you were able to see the host's WWPN and map the volumes. If
NPIV is active, and therefore the link can't be established due to a lack
of switching, how did you map them?

Kristopher does bring up a good point. Double check that the FC ports

being used on the v5000 show as “Host IO Permitted”. The fctargetportmode
may be set wrong on the v5000. It must be Disabled or Transitional.

v5000 CLI command
Lsiogrp 0

Look for fctargetportmode

We don't have virtual wwpns. I remember you need a SAN Switch for that.

You need to disable the virtual wwpns (NPIV) on the V5K controller.
