Usage

Table 1. qaucli usage
Command	Description
qaucli -pr fc e (view \| ?)	Shows the current boot device information on all HBAs
`qaucli -pr fc -e (hba_instance \| hba_wwpn target_wwnn target_wwpn lun_id [prim \| alt1 \| alt2 \| alt3])`	Configures the operating system to boot from a particular target, where: `hba_instance` The HBA instance number of an HBA port. `hba_wwpn` The World Wide Port Name of an HBA port. `target_wwnn` The World Wide Node Name of a target device, in the format `nn-nn-nn-nn-nn-nn-nn-nn` or `nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn`. `target_wwpn` The World Wide Port Name of a target device, in the format `nn-nn-nn-nn-nn-nn-nn-nn` or `nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn`. `lun_id` The Logical Unit Number (LUN). `prim` The primary boot port name. `altn` The name of the alternate boot port. You can specify up to three alternate boot ports.
`qaucli -pr fc -e (hba_instance \| hba_wwpn) (view \| ?)`	Shows the current boot device information for the specified HBA port.
`qaucli -pr fc -e (hba_instance \| hba_wwpn) (enable \| 0 0 0)`	Configures the operating system to boot from the first target found by the BIOS. The default LUN is 0.
`qaucli -pr fc -e (hba_instance \| hba_wwpn) disable [prim \| alt1 \| alt2 \| alt3]`	Clears the selected boot device settings on the indicated HBA port.
`qaucli -pr fc -l (hba_instance \| hba_wwpn)`	Displays information about the LUNs attached to the specified HBA port.

Examples

The following examples illustrate how to use the qaucli utility.

Note: Some of these examples are broken across multiple lines due to formatting constraints. When using qaucli, you must enter all of the parameters on a single line.
