The CHARON-AXP FC Fabric presentation mode allows to use Linux FC HBA directly. When using this mode, there is no need to load KGPSA adapter(s) as it was described before. The following syntax has to be used instead:

Example:

load kgpsa_generic_storage PGA interface="host3"

...

Name of FC, SCSI host or adapter's port/node name, defining a connection to Linux FC HBA, for example:

MappingDescription
fc_host6

Emulation over Linux SG (FC) host 6

host6
Emulation over Linux SG (FC) host 6
2000-0000-C923-EA51 

Emulation over Linux SG (FC) host given with port/node name

0x20000000C923EA51
Emulation over Linux SG (FC) host given with port/node name
wwn-0x20000000C923EA51
Emulation over Linux SG (FC) host given with port/node name

Example:

load kgpsa_generic_storage PGA interface="host3"

...

The list of the LUNs to be excluded. If empty (default), nothing is excluded.
(warning) No multi line is possible for this parameter; the maximum number of symbols inside the double quotes is 255. Use "lun_include" parameter instead if a lot of LUNs must be excluded to specify only the included LUNs.

Example:

Div
classsmall

load kgpsa_generic_storage PGA lun_exclude="6008-05F3-0005-2950-C758-BCC2-E88B-0007,6008-05F3-0005-2950-8B03-E26B-E231-0005"


Note

lun_exclude parameter cannot exclude storage mapped to LUN 0 because of its special function.

lun_include

The list of the LUNs to be included. If empty (default), all LUNs are included.
(warning) No multi line is possible for this parameter; the maximum number of symbols inside the double quotes is 255. Use "lun_exclude" parameter instead if a lot of LUNs must be included to specify only the excluded LUNs.

Example:

Div
classsmall

load kgpsa_generic_storage PGA lun_include="6008-05F3-0005-2950-C758-BCC2-E88B-0007,6008-05F3-0005-2950-8B03-E26B-E231-0005"

scsi_version

This approach of FC emulation downgrades all attached devices to the specifically defined version of SCSI. This is done to make legacy guest operating systems happy with attached modern devices.
