Reinitializing Ports

A full reinitialization can be performed on a Fibre Channel or iSCSI target port on a server. This operation includes reloading firmware, reinitializing hardware (FC only), resetting the link, and logging in the ports.

This operation may take a few minutes. During the operation the link will go down temporarily and traffic on the port will be suspended.

To reinitialize a port:

1. In DataCore Servers Panel, expand Server Ports for the appropriate server.
2. Right-click the port and select Reinitialize.
3. Click Yes on the confirmation message to continue with the operation.
