Goal
One of the first ways to isolate a FC connectivity issue is by using a FC Loopback Plug or Private Loop Cable.
But if the Connection/Topology option parameter in FC HBA Driver configuration file is not set to default value then FC Loopback Plug or Private Loop Cable will not work.
So these parameters should be checked before attempting FC Loopback Plug or Private Loop Cable tests.
