    Hi,

    You can modify existing port groups to move around the FA's, add new ones, and remove ones you no longer want in use (might need to use -force). As far as it being online, it should be online as long as you leave at least one path/port online in your masking view and you host MPIO software can handle the changes online.

    Check out the SE Array Controls Guide - there is a section on adding and removing ports from port groups with any caveats it might have.

    HTH,

    -K

    hi

    thank you for the response.

    the idea here is to move some making view from Port group to another, so modify the port group of masking view

    i have already another port group free.
