Fibre Channel Adapter Installation for HP-UX Important Patches and Updates — Fibre Channel host bus adapter with an optical port protector attached (not included with all adapters) • Verify that you have the following cabling items: — Fiber optic cable terminated with a duplex LC connector. — Cable map (optional) Important Patches and Updates Review the FibrChanl-01 (fcd) Fibre Channel Mass Storage Driver for HP-UX Release Notes located at docs.hp.com for the latest patch and dependency requirements.
Fibre Channel Adapter Installation for HP-UX Installing Adapter Hardware Step 1. Log in to the system as root. Step 2. Insert the CD into the CD drive. Step 3. Mount the CD using the following command: mount /dev/dsk/ / Step 4. Run swinstall to install the software. Enter the following command: /usr/sbin/swinstall The Software Selection window and the Specify Source window open. Step 5. In the Specify Source window, change the Source Host Name if necessary.
Fibre Channel Adapter Installation for HP-UX Installing Adapter Hardware Confirm whether OLAR or OL* are supported on the system in wich you plan to install a Fibre Channel adapter. See the HP Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter Support Matrix, at: http://docs.hp.com/en/netcom.html#Fibre%20Channel For detailed instructions on using OLAR on HP-UX 11i v1, see Chapter 2 of Configuring HP-UX for Peripherals, which can be accessed at: http://docs.hp.com/en/hpux11i.
Fibre Channel Adapter Installation for HP-UX Installing Adapter Hardware • • Ensure that the system is grounded. Open the system to gain access to the PCI backplane. Step 4. Install the adapter in an available PCI slot. CAUTION • • Observe all ESD safety precautions before attempting this procedure. Failure to follow ESD safety precautions could result in damage to equipment. Slide the adapter edge-connector into the PCI slot until it is fully seated. Secure the card. Step 5. Reassemble the system.

Fibre Channel Adapter Installation for HP-UX Attaching the Adapter to Other Fibre Channel Devices Attaching the Adapter to Other Fibre Channel Devices To attach the adapter to other Fibre Channel devices, follow these steps: 1. Remove the Fibre Channel host bus adapter’s optical port protector (if included). 2. Attach a connector cable to the Fibre Channel host bus adapter. a. Align the slotted plug with the keyed connector. b. Push the connector in until you hear it click. 3.
Fibre Channel Adapter Installation for HP-UX Verifying the Fibre Channel Adapter Installation Verifying the Fibre Channel Adapter Installation 1. To verify the adapter installation, enter the command: # ioscan -f 2. Verify that the following drivers appear for each installed adapter. If all drivers display, proceed to the next section, Verifying Connectivity. The ioscan output might look like the following. The third column represents the hardware path of the slot in which the adapter is installed.
Fibre Channel Adapter Installation for HP-UX Interpreting Legacy Hardware Paths (HP-UX 11i v1 and 11i v2) 3. HP Fibre Channel Mass Storage installation is verified if the ioscan output lists all mass storage devices attached to the adapter. If any attached devices are not listed or appear as UNCLAIMED, see the Troubleshooting and Maintenance chapter of the HP Fibre Channel Adapters Support Guide.
Fibre Channel Adapter Installation for HP-UX Interpreting Legacy Hardware Paths (HP-UX 11i v1 and 11i v2) Table 1-3 Hardware Path Field Descriptions (Continued) Fibre Channel Topology of HBA Field Value Fabric Topologies Area Depends on the Fibre Channel topology of the HBA. Taken from the second byte of the N_Port ID of the target device. Private Loop 0 On some switches, the second byte of the N_Port ID encodes the switch port to which the device is connected.
Fibre Channel Adapter Installation for HP-UX Interpreting Legacy Hardware Paths (HP-UX 11i v1 and 11i v2) LUN Addressing Method Value of LUN field in Fibre Channel hardwarePath. Peripheral Device Addressing The Target or LUN field of the Logical Unit Number. Logical Unit Addressing The LUN field of the Logical Unit Number. Volume Set Addressing (Flat Space Addressing) Bits 0 - 2 of the Logical Unit Number.
Fibre Channel Adapter Installation for HP-UX Interpreting Lunpath Hardware Paths (HP-UX 11i v3) Interpreting Lunpath Hardware Paths (HP-UX 11i v3) Lunpath hardware paths are a new representation of hardware paths introduced on HP-UX 11i v3, as part of the new agile representation of mass storage devices. For more details, please refer to the Next Generation Mass Storage Stack HP-UX 11i v3 white paper at http://docs.hp.com/en/netsys.html#Storage%20Area%20Management .
Fibre Channel Adapter Installation for HP-UX Interpreting Lunpath Hardware Paths (HP-UX 11i v3) Target Node World Wide Name = 0x500805f300083890 The LUN address for a Fibre Channel device is a 64-bit LUNid.
Fibre Channel Adapter Installation for HP-UX Interpreting Lunpath Hardware Paths (HP-UX 11i v3) The controller, target, and lun values are extracted from the LUN id as shown in the table: Table 1-7 Controller (7 bits) Target (4 bits) 0-63 0-15 LUN (3 bits) 0-7 To convert a lunpath hardware path to a legacy hardware path, use the scsimgr get_info command on the target’s hardware path to display the port_id, which contains the domain, area, and port values.
2 OpenVMS Installation This chapter contains OpenVMS installation information for the A6826A Fibre Channel Adapter card and contains the following sections: • “Supported Configurations” • “Superdome Installation” • “Installation Prerequisites” • “Driver Software” • “Install Adapter” • “Attach Other Devices” • “Verifying Installation” • “Additional Configuration Information” Thank you for purchasing HP I/O Cards If you are installing an HP I/O card as an add-in device, please review this docu
OpenVMS Installation Installation Prerequisites Installation Prerequisites • Verify the following product contents — Grounding wrist strap — Fibre Channel driver software media (included with OS or application CD) — Fibre Channel host bus adapter with an optical port protector attached (not included with all adapters).

OpenVMS Installation Attach Other Devices Attach Other Devices Attaching a Fibre Channel HBA to other Fibre Channel devices. 1. Be sure you have removed the Fibre Channel host bus adapter’s optical port protector (if included). 2. Be sure you have attached a connector cable to the Fibre Channel host bus adapter. Align the slotted plug with the keyed connector. Push the connector in until you hear it click. 3. Attach the free end of the cable to a compatible Fibre Channel device. 4.
OpenVMS Installation Verifying Installation Verifying Installation To verify installation, follow these steps: 1. Log in to a privileged account such as SYSTEM. 2. Confirm that all of the A6826A FibreChannel Adapter ports have been configured. These ports are represented by devices named FGA0:, FGB0:, etc. There are two ports per adapter, and there should be one device per port. The device type should be "QLogic ISP23xx FibreChannel" as shown below. 3.
