DESCRIPTIONThe fcoeadm utility is the Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) management tool for the Open−FCoE project​. fcoeadm may be used to create, destroy, and reset an FCoE instance on a given network interface​. For these operations fcoeadm sends a command to a running fcoemon process, via a socket interface​. fcoemon will then perform the requested operation​. fcoeadm also provides operations to query information about FCoE instances, including interface information, target information, LUN information, and port statistics​. For much of this information, fcoeadm relies on the libhbalinux implementation of the HBA API​. Only one operation may be given on a command​.

OPTIONS−m, −−mode fabric|vn2vn Used together with the create option to control the FCoE mode of operation​. The mode defaults to fabric but this option allows the selection of vn2vn mode​.

OPERATIONS−c, −−create ethX Creates an FCoE instance based on the specified network interface​. Note that if there is not an fcoemon configuration file for the interface (/etc/fcoe/cfg−ethX, see fcoemon), then the created FCoE instance will not require DCB​. −d, −−destroy ethX Destroys the FCoE instance on the specified network interface​. This will not destroy FCoE instances created by fipvlan​. −r, −−reset ethX Resets the FCoE instance on the specified network interface​. This will not reset FCoE instances created by fipvlan​. −S, −−Scan ethX Rescan for new targets and LUNs on the provided instance​. This command will not rescan any NPIV instances created on the same port​. This will not rescan any FCoE instance created by fipvlan​. −i, −−interface [ethX] Show information about the FCoE instance on the specified network interface, or all FCoE instances if no network interface is specified​. −f, −−fcf [ethX] Show information about the discovered Fibre Channel Forwarders (FCFs) on the specified network interface, or all discovered FCFs if no network interface is specified​. −t, −−target [ethX] Show information about the discovered targets associated with the FCoE instance on the specified network interface​. If no network interface is specified, information about discovered targets from all FCoE instances will be shown​. −l, −−lun [ethX] Show detailed information about the discovered SCSI LUNs associated with the FCoE instance on the specified network interface​. If no network interface is specified, information about SCSI LUNs from all FCoE instances will be shown​. −s, −−stats ethX [interval] Show the statistics (including FC4 statistics) of the FCoE connection on the specified network interface​. The information will be displayed repeatedly until the user cancels the command​. The statistics will be printed every specified interval (in seconds)​. interval should be specified as a whole number greater than 0​. If interval is not specified, a default interval of one second is used​. −b, −−lesb ethX [interval] Show the Link Error Statistics Block (LESB) of the FCoE connection on the specified network interface​. The information will be displayed repeatedly until the user cancels the command​. The LESB statistics will be printed every specified interval (in seconds)​. interval should be specified in whole integers greater than 0​. If the interval is not specified, a default interval of one second is used​. −h, −−help Displays the usage message of the fcoeadm command​. −v, −−version Displays the version of the fcoeadm command​.

INTERFACE NAMESThe actual name for ethX depends on the AUTO_VLAN setting in the fcoemon interface configuration (/etc/fcoe/cfg-ethX, see fcoemon)​. If AUTO_VLAN is set to yes, the interface name ethX references the network device itself. If AUTO_VLAN is set to no, the interface name ethX references the VLAN device​.

A brief listing of discovered LUNs are listed after the target they are associated with, if any fcoeadm −tShow the information of all the discovered targets from a given port (eth3) having FCoE instance created​. A brief listing of discovered LUNs are listed after each target they are associated with, if any fcoeadm −t eth3Show the detailed information of all the LUNs discovered on all FCoE connections fcoeadm −lShow the detailed information of all the LUNs associated with a specific interface fcoeadm −l eth3​.101Show the statistics information of a specific port eth3 having FCoE instances created​. The statistics are displayed one line per time interval​. The default interval is one second if an interval is not specified fcoeadm −s eth3fcoeadm −s eth3 3
