Edit a Fibre Channel Initiator Group

  1. Change the initiator group name, description, or host type.
    initiatorgrp --edit initiatorgrp_name [--name new_name] [--description text] [--host_type host_type]
    NOTE: The --host_type option is only needed when editing an initiator group for HP-UX systems. Specify hpux as the host_type sub-option when editing an initiator group in HP-UX.
  2. Add an initiator.
    initiatorgrp --add_initiators initiatorgroup_name [--label label] [--initiator_alias initiator_alias] --wwpn WWPN
    Example:
    NOTE: A WWPN is 16 hexadecimal characters (case insensitive) in XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX or XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX format. If you cannot copy-and-paste the WWPN, type it in very carefully.
  3. (Optional) Verify your Fibre Channel initiator group configuration.
    initiatorgrp --info initiatorgrp_name 
$ initiatorgrp --edit Datamon
$ initiatorgrp --add_initiators Datamon --label client1 --wwpn 10:20:00:a0:fa:63:c2:61
$ initiatorgrp --info Datamon
