IS_EMULEX_MAPPING_STRICT_CHECKING
This parameter is shipped in the Portal software and is listed in the Add Advanced Parameter window.
Valid Values: Y or N (Default = N)
Scope: This parameter can be set at the Domain or Data Collector level or for a specific OS, or for a specific host.
Emulex HBA mapping in Windows environments requires the SCSI bus-LUN-target mapping to strictly match the physical drive. Sometimes there may be a data collection issue where the LUNs are mapping to the wrong device names. This can happen if there are multi-paths using the same target and SCSI OS LUN in the output.
Use this parameter to turn on strict checking of the mapping.
