Fibre channel questions
Hello
I have DSS working with a point-to-point setup.
QLogic QLE2460 in the client and the same card in DSS server.
I want to get a dual port QLogic QLE2462 card and do 2 x clients point-to-point.
My question is how do I specify which FC target to connect to from each client?
I'm using Linux on the client, has anyone set this up?
Let me explain. I have 2 FC targets on DSS:
lvstorage06 - 250GB
lvstorage07 - 300GB
When I boot my client, it automatically connects to both of the targets:
scsi 8:0:0:0: Direct-Access SCST_FIO G9m9E2YRGmb9Vz3d 096 PQ: 0 ANSI: 4

I've looked at the SANsurfer CLI manual but I can't find any thing relevant. There is a chapter on Target Persistent Bindings, but this menu does not exist in my SANsurfer tool.
How do I stop the disks automatically connecting?
Another problem I have is that the SANsurfer tool is now missing in DSS. How do I restore it?
Thanks
