I find Novell's page to be the most straight-forward on getting it
running:

I do use SLES, but you should be able to apply the same logic to any
Linux-based dom0 that supports NPIV.
Also, note, as I mentioned in my reply with NPIV, your FC switches must
have NPIV support enabled (my Cisco MDS switches required issuing a
command to enable NPIV), and, if your SAN is a multi-head (Active/Active
or Active/Standby) controller configuration, you need to make sure that
it supports migrating the target WWNs between controllers, else you'll
lose connectivity to your volumes when one of your controllers goes
down.
