• Open network port
By default, the CIM Extension uses port 4673 to communicate with the management server.
Verify the network port is open. If you need to use a different port, see ”Finding the Version of a
CIM Extension” on page 198.
• SNIA HBA API Support
The management server is only compatible with host bus adapters (HBAs) that support the SNIA
HBA API. The SNIA HBA API support for OVMS (Alpha) 7.3-2 and 8.2 and OVMS IA64 8.2-1 is
part of the FIBRE_SCSI ECO kits listed here:
• DEC-AXPVMS-VMS732_FIBRE_SCSI-V0900 for OVMS (alpha) 7.3-2
• DEC-AXPVMS-VMS82A_FIBRE_SCSI-V0200 for OVMS (alpha) 8.2.
• HP-I64VMS-VMS821I_FIBRE_SCSI-V0200 for OVMS (IA64) 8.2-1
To verify HBA API support, check the OpenVMS host for the following files in the path specified.
$ dir sys$common:[syslib]hba_vms.exe
$ dir sys$common:[syslib]hba.conf
