2. Verify that your Windows NT/Windows 2000/Windows Server 2003 (32-bit)
Servers (hosts) are connected to the Fibre Channel Loop
To verify that your Windows NT/Windows 2000/Windows Server 2003
(32-bit) servers are connected to the loop, issue the CLI command show
connection. As shown in Figure A-3, the output of this command shows
information about present and previous host connections to the loop.
■ The unit address column refers to the Arbitrated Loop Physical Address
that you assigned when running the Fibre Channel software setup.
■ The Status Column indicates the host connection (Windows NT/Windows
2000/Windows Server 2003 (32-bit) server) is On-Line to either the
HSG80 controller that you are connected to (OL this) or the other HSG80
controller (OL other).
It is recommend to rename the connection-name field to the computer name
of your server. This will facilitate your ability to discern loop connections.
The recommended method of discerning loop connection names is to boot one
server at a time and issue the show connection command. The new On-line
connection that is displayed will be the server that you just started.

If your Windows NT/Windows 2000/Windows Server 2003 (32-bit) servers
are not connect to the Fibre Channel loop, verify the FCA driver has started
by invoking the Device applet in the Control Panel.
a. Check the event log for errors by the FCA device driver.
b. Check the Fibre Channel cable from your host bus adapter to the Fibre
Channel hub.
c. Verify the LEDs are illuminated where the Fibre Channel cable is
connected to the hub and on the back of the Fibre Channel host bus
adapter. If your Host servers are connected to the loop, proceed to Step 3.
