1 HP PCIe 2-port 4X Fabric (HPC/DB) Adapter Installation This document gives installation information for the HP Fabric Clustering System Host Channel Adapter (HCA) for InfiniBand™, AD313A PCIe (HPC/DB) Adapter with 2 (two) 4X copper interfaces. NOTE: The AD313A card is NOT supported on PA systems. The AD313A product is for use in high-performance technical computing clusters and in database clusters, and includes features specifically required to support and integrate with the Oracle 10gRAC database.
Refer to the section "Configuration, Image, and Log Files" section of the HP Fabric Clustering System HP-UX Administrator's Guide. • • • • • • Confirm that the HP Fabric adapter and software is supported on the HP server and IO slot chosen; see HP Fabric Clustering System Support Matrix, available at http://www.docs.hp.com in the I/O Cards and Networking Software section. Each AD313A Host Channel Adapter card requires 512 MB host memory in supported servers.
Install HP Fabric Clustering System Adapters CAUTION: Adapters contain electronic components that can easily be damaged by small amounts of electricity. To avoid damage, follow these guidelines: • Store adapters in their anti-static plastic bags until installation. • Work in a static-free area, if possible. • Handle adapters by the edges only. Do not touch electronic components or electrical traces. • Use the disposable grounding wrist strap provided with each adapter.
Install HP Fabric Clustering System Software This section describes the steps necessary to install HP Fabric Clustering System software. The same software version must be installed on each instance of the HP-UX operating system in the fabric. 1. 2. Log on to the system as root. Insert the software media into the appropriate drive. If the software is being loaded from a CD-ROM, go to step 3; otherwise, go to step 4. The software can also be located at http://www.software.hp.com.
. Select the OK button in the Note window to reboot. The user interface disappears and the system reboots. When the system comes back up, log on to the system as root and view the /var/adm/sw/swagent.log and /var/adm/sw/swinstall.log files to view error or warning messages that may have occurred during the installation. 12. Verify that all installed fabric adapters have a software state of CLAIMED, by running the ioscan -fk -C ib command.
$ /usr/bin/olrad [-f] -r slot_id where slot_id is the Slot ID of the slot. The -foption overrides the "data critical" errors returned by Critical Resource Analysis. It is important to note that olrad will not allow "critical" errors to be overridden and that olrad automatically overrides "warnings".
