Your ActiveRAID's FC ports can be set to one of three settings: auto, loop, fabric. The auto setting is fine for most situations, however in some cases you may have to force the setting. Loop is used when connecting directly to your host computer. Fabric is used when you are connecting to a FC switch. To change your ActiveRAID's FC port settings, follow these directions:
activeadmin -d <IP address of the RAID> fc mode all loop
To set it back to fabric mode,
activeadmin -d <IP address of the RAID> fc mode all fabric
The 'auto' mode should detect whether the unit is attached to a switch or an AL port on an HBA:
activeadmin -d <IP address of the RAID> fc mode all auto
You will have to restart the ActiveRAID in order to see this change take affect. The “soft” way to restart the chassis is:
activeadmin -d <ip of your system> shutdown –r
