Format of the fc_pcitable file
The /etc/opt/hpcfs/fc_pcitable file contains entries only for the drivers
installed on your system. By default, the entries in the file are commented out, as
indicated by the comment character (#). The file is used only if you add a new entry
to the file or modify a default entry (by removing the comment character and then
changing the appropriate values).
Each line in the file contains six fields, as shown in the following example for the
default qla2x00 driver:
0x1077 0x2200 qla2x00 scsi "" QLogic 2200 Adapter
The fields contain the following information:
• Vendor ID.
• Device ID.
• Driver name. Do not include .o in the name.
• Path. If the path begins with “/”, it is considered to be an absolute path. Other-
wise, it is considered to be relative to the /opt/hpcfs/lib/modules/current
directory.
• Options, enclosed in double quotes, to pass to insmod when it loads the driver.
• A text description of the driver.
QLogic HBA drivers
Locate the line for your FibreChannel Adapter device driver in the pcitable file
and then add the following options inside the double quotes:
ql2xmaxqdepth=16 qlport_down_retry=10 ql2xloginretrycount=30
ql2xfailover=0 ql2xlbType=1 ql2xautorestore=0xa0 ConfigRequired=0
If you had previously enabled QLogic failover in the file, be sure to set the
ql2xfailover option to 0. Also remove the comment character (#) if it appears
at the beginning of the line.
For example:
0x1077 0x2432 qla2xxx qla2xxx-8.02.11 "ql2xfailover=0 ql2xmaxqdepth=16
qlport_down_retry=10 ql2xloginretrycount=30 ql2xlbType=1 ql2xautorestore=0xa0
ConfigRequired=0" QLogic 2432 Fibre Channel Adapter
