• View and configure the virtual addresses for network and fibre channel 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 handledduring system reset and whether the NIC, CNA, or FC HBA device has auxiliary power. The persistence of IO identity settings canbe 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 valuesare persisted or cleared based on the policy settings.NOTE: After the values are cleared, you cannot re-apply the values before running the configuration job.Related linksInventorying, monitoring, and configuring network devicesSupported cards for I/O Identity OptimizationSupported NIC firmware versions for I/O Identity OptimizationEnabling or disabling I/O Identity OptimizationConfiguring persistence policy settingsSupported cards for I/O Identity OptimizationThe following table provides the cards that support the I/O Identity Optimization feature.Table 30.
