management server only supports communication with HBAs that are compliant with the HBA API.
For more information about the HBA API, see the following Web page at the SNIA Web site:
http://www.snia.org/tech_activities/hba_api/
Prerequisites
The installation for the CIM extension verifies that the host is running at least Tru64 5.1B. If the
installation fails, see ”Fulfilling the Prerequisites” on page 269.
Also, verify the following before you install the CIM extension:
Software Requirements
NOTE: You do not need to install the FC-HBA shared libraries if you are running Tru64 UNIX
version 5.1B-4.
If you are running Tru64 UNIX version 5.1B-3 or version 5.1B-2, you must install one of the
following SNIA patches to obtain the FC-HBA shared libraries.
• For Tru64 UNIX version 5.1B-2 - Install T64KIT1000413-V51BB25-E-20060222.
• For Tru64 UNIX version 5.1B-3 - Install T64KIT1000414-V51BB26-E-20060222.
To obtain the patch:
1. Go to the IT Resource Center Web site at the following URL: http://www1.itrc.hp.com/
.
2. Use the Search box at the Web site to find the patch number. When you search for the patch,
make sure IT Resource Center (Compaq) is selected.
NOTE: To save time, copy the patch number from the PDF or HTML Installation Guide and
paste it into the Search box.
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 Tru64 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.
Installing the CIM Extension
IMPORTANT: You must install the CIM extension for Tru64 in the default directory. If there are
space issues, such as large CIM extension binary files, create a symbolic link to a folder with more
space.
You can install the CIM extension for Tru64 in either of two ways:
• On a Standalone Host - See ”Installing the CIM Extension on a Standalone Host” on page 263.
