Host Operating System Notes
40 HSG80 Enterprise Modular Storage RAID Array Fibre Channel Solution Software V8.8 for Sun
Solaris Release Notes
To change scsi_probe_delay values, the following configuration files
(depending on bus architecture), found in the
/kernel/drv directory, should be
edited:
32-bit Sbus: fca.conf
64-bit Sbus: fcaw.conf
32-bit PCI Bus: fca-pci.conf
Messages on Console After Driver Initializes
You may see messages similar to the following on the console after the driver
initializes:
/kernel/drv/fca symbol ddi_model_convert_from multiply defined
NOTICE: fca_transparent: utsname.release: 5.6
These messages can be safely ignored. They are removed in a future release.
Required Patches
Do not omit the required patches (see “System Components” on page 31, of these
Release Notes). These patches are required for proper operation of your RAID
Array.
The installation program (
install_stgwks) checks that you have the required
patches loaded and notifies you if any are missing. If any patches are missing, the
installation lists all required patches, not just the missing ones.
Type the following command to list the patches already installed on your system:
# showrev -p
Minimum System Memory Requirements
Because of the increased functionality and performance of the 2.5.9.x drivers, the
Sun server memory requirements have increased. A minimum of 256 MB of
memory is required in the Sun server before loading the FC adapter drivers.
Maximum Supported HBAs per System Board
For Sun Enterprise machines (including E3000, E3500, E4500), the maximum
number of adapters that may be installed in any sbus I/O tray is two. The
maximum number of I/O trays is limited only by the system expandability.
