In NetApp, which command would you use to display the Fibre Channel initiator WWPNs that logged into the system?

• A. fcp show initiator
• B. fcp config
• C. fcp show -i
• D. fcp initiator show

Answer: (A)

In NetApp 7-Mode, to see which Fibre Channel initiators have connected to the system, you query the FC subsystem with a direct show command for initiators. The command fcp show initiator returns the Fibre Channel initiator WWPNs that have logged in, giving you the exact list of active initiators and their World Wide Port Names. This is the straightforward, purpose-built way to verify which hosts are connected over Fibre Channel. The other options don’t target the login view. fcp config is about Fibre Channel configuration rather than current logins. A variant like fcp show -i isn’t the standard syntax for listing connected initiators and would not reliably display the WWPNs of logged-in initiators. fcp initiator show may refer to initiator definitions or configurations rather than active login sessions, so it doesn’t provide the same, true-time view of who has logged in.
