Fibre Channel Device Class-Specific Properties

You can use the ldm create-vf or the ldm set-io commands to set the following Fibre Channel virtual function properties:

bw-percent

Specifies the percentage of the bandwidth to be allocated to the Fibre Channel virtual function. Valid values are from 0 to 100. The total bandwidth value assigned to a Fibre Channel physical function's virtual functions cannot exceed 100. The default value is 0 so that the virtual function gets a fair share of the bandwidth that is not already reserved by other virtual functions that share the same physical function.

node-wwn

Specifies the node world-wide name (WWN) for the Fibre Channel virtual function. Valid values are non-zero. By default, this value is allocated automatically. If you manually specify this value, you must also specify a value for the port-wwn property. For more information, see World-Wide Name Allocation for Fibre Channel Virtual Functions.

port-wwn

Specifies the port WWN for the Fibre Channel virtual function. Valid values are non-zero. By default, this value is allocated automatically. If you manually specify this value, you must also specify a value for the node-wwn property. For more information, see World-Wide Name Allocation for Fibre Channel Virtual Functions.

You cannot modify the node-wwn or the port-wwn property values while the Fibre Channel virtual function is in use. However, you can modify the bw-percent property value dynamically even when the Fibre Channel virtual function is in use.
