SAS HBA and WWPNs

Hi HP Community,

 

I have a SAS MSA that reports a different WWN than the host reports. There are 4 HBAs and two clustered servers.

All of the HBA WWNs end with a zero. And two of the HBAs on the MSA match up to what the host reports.

The other two end with a 4.

 

Does each SAS HBA have four World Wide Port Names? Why would two of the MSA ports match and the other two be off by 4?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

 

P.S. This thread has been moved from General to Storage Area Networks (SAN) (Small and Medium Business) - Hp Forum MOderator

I've heard that SAS drives have 4.
