Determining the host port WWPNs—FC

To configure FC zoning, you must determine the worldwide port name (WWPN) of each initiator port.

1. Connect to the ESXi host using SSH or the ESXi shell.
2. Run the following command:

   esxcfg-scsidevs –a
   

3. Record the initiator identifiers. The output will be similar to this example:

   vmhba3 lpfc link-up  fc.20000090fa05e848:10000090fa05e848 (0000:03:00.0)

   vmhba4 lpfc link-up  fc.20000090fa05e849:10000090fa05e849 (0000:03:00.1)
