Parameters

Parameter Description
hostPort The name of the HBA host port for which you want to change the host type, or for which you want to create a new name. Enclose the HBA host port name in square brackets ([ ]). If the HBA host port label has special characters, enclose the HBA host port label in double quotation marks (" ").
host The name of the host to which the HBA host port is connected. Enclose the host name in double quotation marks (" ").
userLabel The new name that you want to give to the HBA host port. Enclose the new name of the HBA host port in double quotation marks (" ").
  • NOTE: When you use this command, you can specify one or more of the optional parameters. You do not, however, need to use all of the parameters.
  • NOTE: You can use any combination of alphanumeric characters, hyphens, and underscores for the names. Command names can have a maximum of 30 characters. If you exceed the maximum character limit, replace square brackets ([ ]) with angle brackets (< >) to overcome this limitation.
