Monitoring and Troubleshooting the HP-UX Host
This section contains monitoring and troubleshooting information for the software configuration and
communication of HCAs within the HP Fabric Clustering System.
HP-UX Host Troubleshooting Procedure
Step 1. Ensure adapters are claimed by the host.
Run ioscan.
Description: ioscan displays information about I/O devices on the host, including the software
state of adapters. In the example below, options are applied to the command to display only fabric
adapters.
Syntax example: ioscan -fkC ib
Output example:
Class I H/W Path Driver S/W State H/W Type Description
============================================================================
ib 0 0/4/1/0/0/0 ib_t CLAIMED INTERFACE HP InfiniBand HCA
Step 2. Ensure that each adapter has the latest version of supported firmware. If it does not, you must
update the firmware.
Run itutil.
Description: itutil displays details about fabric adapters on the host, which include the firware
version. The firware version number is displayed in the output line item “IA Firware Version
Number.”
Syntax example: itutil
Output example:
========================================================================
Number of Interface Adapters on this node: 1
========================================================================
Interface Adapter Name : ib0
H/W Path : 0/4/1/0/0/0
Transport Type : IT_IB_TRANSPORT
IT API Version Number : 1.0
IA Software Version Number : 1.0
IA Firmware Version Number : 3.1.0
Firmware Type : Performance
IA supported transport service types : IT_RC_SERVICE
