• Direct connect configuration notes:
• For direct connect configurations you must enable FC-AL hard addressing on the MSA
controller. See the ACU or CLI online help or user documentation for instructions.
• LUN configuration notes:
• In direct connect environments or in any environment when using the ACU-CLI, a minimum of
one storage LUN on the MSA must be configured and set to the HP-UX host mode before
connecting the MSA to the HP-UX server.
Installing the ACU-CLI on the servers (optional)
To use the ACU-CLI to configure MSA storage, perform the following steps to install it on the servers:
NOTE:
• You must remove earlier versions of the ACU-CLI before installing later versions.
• For information about using the ACU-CLI, see ACU-CLI online help, the HP-UX ACU-CLI readme
file or release notes, or the HP Configuring Arrays reference guide.
1. Insert the Support Software CD in the CD-ROM drive of the server.
NOTE: If you created a new Support Software CD from the Web, insert that CD in the
CD-ROM drive of the server and do not use the shipping version of the CD. For more
information, see the following sections in this guide:
•”Determine which version of MSA controller firmware to use” on page 15
•”Obtain desired controller firmware and Support Software CD versions” on page 56
2. From the console, mount the CD-ROM drive and navigate to the /HPUXACUCLI/HP-UX directory
for your environment.
3. List the contents of the directory and identify the ACU-CLI depot file for your environment.
4. Copy the ACU-CLI depot file and its corresponding readme file to a temporary directory on the
server. For example:
# cp /HPACUCLI/HP-UX/IA64/HPACUCLI_IA_v7.47-1.depot .tmp
5. Install the ACU-CLI application using the swinstall command. For example:
# swinstall -s /tmp/HPACUCLI_IA_v7.47-1.depot
6. Remove the Support Software CD from the CD-ROM drive.
NOTE: To start the ACU-CLI, do the following from the console: Navigate to the
/opt/compaq/hpacucli/bld directory, and then enter # ./hpacucli.
