Installation Manual

Installing the CIM Extension for HP-UX210
Prerequisites
Refer to the HP tab of the support matrix for the prerequisites. If the installation fails, see ”Fulfilling
the Prerequisites” on page 216.
FC SNIA HBA API software is bundled with the driver and is installed at the same time the driver is
installed.
Network Port Must Be Open
The CIM extension uses port 4673 by default to communicate with the management server. Verify
the network port is open. Refer to the documentation accompanying your HP-UX host for more
information. If you need to use a different port, see ”Permanently Changing the Port a CIM
Extension Uses (UNIX Only)” on page 388.
Verifying SNIA HBA API Support
The management server can only talk to host bus adapters (HBAs) that support the SNIA HBA API.
The hbatest program, which is accessible from the CIM Extension CD-ROM, lists the name and
number for all HBAs that support the SNIA HBA API. In some instances, hbatest may report it
cannot find an HBA driver even though an HBA driver is installed. Try installing a different version
of the HBA driver that is SNIA compliant.
IMPORTANT: The Emulex driver does not contain the required library that is required by HP
Storage Essentials. You must install Emulex HBAnywhere software so that HP Storage Essentials can
discover hosts configured with HBAnywhere and hbatest can detect the Emulex host bus adapter.
To run hbatest:
1. Go to the HPUX/tools directory on the CIM Extension 1 CD-ROM.
2. Enter the following at the command prompt:
./hbatest
The program runs its diagnostics.
HP SNIA adapters AXXXXA come from fileset FC-FCD, FC-TACHYON-TL. Unless separated
purposely during the installation of the operating system, filesets are there by default. To view the
location of the library, enter the following at the command prompt:
# more /etc/hba.conf
The following is displayed:
• com.hp.fcms32 /usr/lib/libhbaapihp.sl #32 bit lib names end in '32'
• com.hp.fcms64 /usr/lib/pa20_64/libhbaapihp.sl #64 bit lib names end in '64'
• com.hp.fcd32 /usr/lib/libhbaapifcd.sl
• com.hp.fcd64 /usr/lib/pa20_64/libhbaapifcd.sl
