You can set information for connecting the server port and storage system port.

The server must be registered in VSP One Block Administrator.
Identify the following:
- Server name
- WWN or iSCSI initiator name
- Storage system port ID
Make sure that the user performing the procedure has been assigned the Storage Administrator (Provisioning) role.

From the navigation tree, select Storage > Servers.
From the inventory of servers, select the checkbox for the server to be configured, and then click Configure Port Connections in the action bar.

By selecting multiple servers, you can configure the settings for those servers at the same time.
Click the WWN or iSCSI initiator name of the server and the storage system port ID to set a port connection.
After you configure paths to a server to which volumes are already allocated, the following warning message might be temporarily displayed in the server details window. If this message does not disappear after a while, refresh the window.
```
Port connections for volume allocation are partially configured. To expose volumes to the server, configure port connections.
