• View and configure the virtual addresses for network devices (for example, NIC, CNA, FC HBA)
• Configure the initiator (for iSCSI and FCoE) and storage target settings (for iSCSI, FCoE, and FC)
• Specify persistence or clearance of the configured values over a system AC power loss, cold, and
warm system resets.
The values configured for virtual addresses, initiator and storage targets may change based on the way
the main power is handled during system reset and whether the NIC, CNA, or FC HBA device has auxiliary
power. The persistence of IO identity settings can be achieved based on the policy setting made using
iDRAC.
Only if the I/O identity feature is enabled, the persistence policies take effect. Each time the system resets
or powers on, the values are persisted or cleared based on the policy settings.
