CLI Commands

ADD CONNECTIONS

Adds the specified host connection to the table of known connections. This table is

maintained in NVRAM. The maximum table length is 32 connections; if the table

contains 32 entries, new connections cannot be added unless some old ones are

deleted.

There are two mechanisms for adding a new connection to the table, as follows:

■ Physically connecting a host adapter to a controller port. During initialization, the

controller becomes aware of the connection and adds it to the table. This physical

discovery of connections occurs at the point when a host adapter is plugged in to

a controller port and after issuing a RESTART command. New connections

discovered through physical connection are assigned a default connection name

by the controller. The default connection name is of the form !NEWCONnn.

NOTE: Certain host conditions, such as a power cycle, that disturb the state of the

switched fabric may cause a connection to reappear in the table. The connection

will be assigned a default connection name.

■ Adding a connection through the ADD CONNECTIONS command.

NOTE: ADD CONNECTIONS will add an entry to the table whether the connection

physically exists or not. The table can be completely filled up with fictitious

connections.

Syntax

ADD CONNECTIONS connection_name HOST_ID=n ADAPTER_ID=n

CONTROLLER=controller PORT=n

Parameters

connection_name

The name that will be assigned to the host connection. The connection name can be

any character string with one exception: it cannot be in the form of a default

connection name. The form of a default connection name is !NEWCONnn.
