Changing the Default AL_PA (Arbitrated Loop Physical
Address)
The default value of the AL_PA for the adapter BIOS is 00 (hexadecimal). All adapters
or boot drives can be configured to other AL_PAs rather than their default values.
Note: This option applies only to arbitrated loop (FC-AL).
To change the default AL_PA:
1. From the main configuration menu (Figure 4-2 on page 26), select Configure
Advanced Adapter Parameters. The adapter configuration menu is displayed
(Figure 4-9 on page 31).
2. Select Change Default ALPA of this adapter and press <Enter>. Information
similar to Figure 4-10 on page 32 is displayed.

the valid ALPAs. Table 4-1 below lists the valid AL_PA values.
4. Press <Enter> to accept the new value.
5. Press <Esc> until you exit the BIOS utility.
6. Reboot the system.
Note: If the adapter's AL_PA is changed, it does not appear on the NVRAM
AL_PA until the system has been reset.
