Fibre Channel Adapter Installation for OpenVMSAttaching the Adapter to Other Fibre Channel DevicesChapter 224Attaching the Adapter to Other Fibre Channel DevicesTo 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. Attach the free end of the cable to a compatible Fibre Channel device.4. Reconnect the power cord, if necessary, and power on the system.Table 2-1 lists the cables that you can use when connecting devices to Fibre Channel host bus adapters.Verifying the Fibre Channel Adapter Installation1. Boot OpenVMS and log in to a privileged account.2. Confirm that all of the AB379B Fibre Channel Adapter ports have been configured. A fibre channel port isrepresented by devices named FGA0:, FGB0:, etc. There are two ports per adapter, and there should beone device per port. The device type should be QLogic ISP24xx FibreChannel, as shown below.3. To verify that the device is present, use the SHOW DEVICE /FULL DCL command. The SHOW DEVICE/FULLoutput might look like the following:$ SHOW DEVICE FG /FULLDevice FGA0:, device type QLogic ISP24xx FibreChannel, is online, shareable,error logging is enabled.Error count 0 Operations completed 2934Owner process ““ Owner UIC [SYSTEM]Owner process ID 00000000 Dev Prot S:RWPL,O:RWPL,G,WReference count 0 Default buffer size 0Current preferred CPU Id 2 Fastpath 1Current Interrupt CPU Id 2FC Port Name 5006-0B00-003B-48F4 FC Node Name 5006-0B00-003B-48F54.Device FGB0:, device type QLogic ISP24xx FibreChannel, is online, shareable,error logging is enabled.Table 2-1 Multimode Fibre Channel CablesProductTypeProductNumberLength Fibre Width DuplexingLC-LC 221692-B21 2M 50uM/125uM yesC7525A 16M221692-B27 50MLC-SC 221691-B21 2MC7530A 16M
