Q-Logic 8200 Manuel D’Utilisation

5–Fibre Channel Noninteractive Commands

-ei (List Fibre Channel Error Codes)

SN0054667-00  C

5-11

For all operating systems, if the adapter already has boot devices selected and 
they are the same as the ones in the command parameter or menu selection, the 
following message appears:

The HBA already has that device selected as boot device.

To use selectable boot (the OS boots from the first target the BIOS finds) set the 
<target wwpn>, <target wwnn> and <lun id> inputs to all zeroes. For example 
issue the following command:

# qaucli -pr fc -e (<hba instance> | <hba wwpn>) (enable | 0 0 0)

To disable (delete) the boot device for a specific adapter, issue the following 
command:

# qaucli -pr fc -e (<hba instance> | <hba wwpn>) disable

This command lists the Fibre Channel error codes.

To input parameter options to QConvergeConsole CLI through a text file, type -f, 
followed by the file name. For example:

# qaucli -pr fc -f command.txt

The text file must be formatted as follows: 



The file must contain a single line.



The file must contain only parameters.



The file cannot contain another -f option. 

The following example shows how to set the connection option of an adapter to 
default (loop preferred, otherwise point-to-point) and the data rate to auto through 
a command file that is invoked by the -f option:
1.

Create a text file (for example, setadapter0.txt) and issue the following 

command in the text file:

2.

Save and close the file. 

The -f option is valid only in noninteractive mode, and cannot be combined 

with any other options. Only one command line parameter per file is valid. 
This option is used when it is run as a script file.
