installed in a system or to resolve a Fibre Channel device ID conflict.

2, Fibre Channel Configuration.
2. To toggle between hard addressing and soft addressing, select option
1.
3. To choose a new address, select option 2 and enter a new address from
the table in Figure 3-6 on page 3-12.
NOTE The “Change ALPA Value” option is not available when the soft address
mode has been selected.
