1. Introduction

The Emulex

OneCommand

Manager application is a comprehensive management

utility for Emulex host bus adapters (HBAs), universal converged network adapters

(UCNAs), and converged fabric adapters (CFAs) that provides a powerful, centralized

adapter management suite. Adapter management includes discovery, reporting and

management of local and remote adapters from a single console anywhere in the

Storage Area Network (SAN) and across operating system platforms. Remote

configuration capability can be provided by either Fibre Channel (FC) access via host

systems on the same FC SAN or by Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol

(TCP/IP) access from IP addresses of remote machines. The OneCommand Manager

application contains a graphical user interface (GUI) and a command line interface

(CLI). Refer to the OneCommand Manager Command Line Interface Version 10.0 User

Manual for information about installing and using the CLI.

Use the OneCommand Manager application to do any of the following:

 Supports COMSTAR for Solaris 11 enabling the Emulex FC driver for Solaris

(EMLXS) to make a host appear as a target to the SAN. (COMSTAR ports are

supported on Solaris 11 with LightPulse FC HBAs only.)

 Supports Dynamic Target Mode enabling an HBA COMSTAR port to be

toggled between initiator mode and target mode without requiring a system

reboot or adapter reset. (Supported on Solaris 11U1 and later with LightPulse

FC HBAs only.)

 Configure Universal Multichannel (UMC) properties and view properties of

other multi-channel types

 OneCommand Manager Secure Management enhances active management

security by enabling administrators to define each user's privileges for

managing or viewing both local and remote adapters. Discover local and remote

Emulex and OEM branded Emulex adapters, as well as hosts, targets, virtual

ports, virtual machines and logical unit numbers (LUNs) over FC or TCP/IP

 Manage local, FC remote and TCP/IP-accessed adapters

 Remote TCP/IP management of adapters on IPv6 hosts

 Discover, log in to, and log out from iSCSI targets including IPv6 targets on

supported adapters

 Manage Emulex HBAs, UCNAs, and CFAs

 Manage adapters on VMware ESXi servers through the Common Information

Model (CIM) interface

 Manage a UCNA’s DCB (Data Center Bridging) settings

 Manage a UCNA’s Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) Initialization Protocol

(FIP)

 Manage adapter licenses

 Manage protocol personalities

 Group hosts for easier parameter configuration and firmware download

 Retrieve adapter dump files from remote hosts

OneCommand™ Manager Application P009785-01A Rev. A

1. Introduction

 Change an adapter’s World Wide Port Name (WWPN) and World Wide Node

Name (WWNN)

 Reset adapter ports

 Configure persistent binding on FC targets

 Set FC/FCoE adapter driver parameters simultaneously to multiple adapters

using Batch Update

 Update firmware and FC boot code (x86 BootBIOS, OpenBoot, or EFIBoot) on a

single adapter or multiple adapters using Batch Update

 Set global FC/FCoE driver parameters

 Enable or disable adapter boot (x86 BootBIOS, FCode, EFIBoot, or PXE Boot)

 Run diagnostic tests on adapters

 Locate adapter ports using beaconing

 Mask and unmask FC LUNs

 Perform authentication using the Fibre Channel Security Protocol

Diffie-Hellman Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (FC-SP

DHCHAP)

 Create and delete FC virtual ports through N_Port_ID virtualization (NPIV)

 View FC virtual ports and virtual machine mapping information

 Configure FC boot from SAN

 Modify an IP port number of the remote management agent

 View vital product data (VPD) for the selected adapter port

 View transceiver information for the selected adapter port

 View iSCSI target session information including support of IPv6 addresses on

certain adapters.

 View and manage multichannel features for supported adapters

 Configure NPAR for supported adapters

 Create and save reports about discovered SAN elements

The OneCommand Manager application installation includes options to install the

OneCommand Vision Sensor application. The OneCommand Vision Sensor application

is designed to work with the Emulex OneCommand Vision system. It is designed to

collect critical I/O performance data while consuming the smallest possible production

server memory and CPU footprint.

The OneCommand Vision system is an intelligent application that enables proactive

management of I/O within a data center environment. OneCommand Vision gives IT

administrators the ability to maximize I/O resource utilization, identify bottlenecks,

and enhance performance and availability by monitoring and analyzing the I/O traffic

within the infrastructure. OneCommand Vision collects, analyzes and organizes critical

I/O performance data; helping organizations establish performance baselines,

proactively monitor performance against those baselines, and lower time to resolution

when problems occur. For more information visit http://www.emulex.com/vision/.

1. Introduction

Compatibility

The OneCommand Manager application can be installed on multiple operating

systems: Windows, Linux, and Solaris.

For VMware ESXi hosts, you can manage adapters using the OneCommand Manager

application on Windows, but you must install and use the appropriate Emulex CIM

Provider.

Note: For VMware ESXi hosts, when advanced adapter management capabilities are

required (for example, iSCSI Management and port disable), use the

OneCommand Manager application for VMware vCenter software plug-in. For

more details, see the OneCommand Manager for VMware vCenter User Manual.

For supported versions of operating systems, platforms, and adapters, see the Emulex

website.
