So in your follow-up example, the physical port at: /qla2xxx/21:00:00:24:ff:4f:0d:ee must be created + enabled first (LUN exports are not necessary on the physical port), before the first NPIV port at: /qla2xxx_npiv/21:00:00:24:ff:4f:0d:ee@21009924ff4f0def:20009924ff4f0def can be configured + enabled. --nab -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe target-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
