• Fibre channel devices do not appear in the EFI shell The solution to this issue is to use the drvcfg -s at the EFI shell prompt, to configure the Emulex EFI driver to always scan the boot devices. 1. To view the Emulex driver handle information, at the EFI shell prompt type: Shell> drivers A list of drivers is displayed. 2. Write down the driver handle associated with the Emulex SCSI Pass Thru Driver. The first column, labelled DRV, lists the driver handles. 3.
different devices, including fclp, in ioscan output. This issue has no impact on the functionality of the Fibre Channel port; however, ioscan output may be confusing. This issue can impact any card accessible with ioscan, and is not specific to the cards supported by the fclp driver. Corrective Action:The ioscan output can be returned to normal by either deleting the stale krm device files, or by starting krm, which will recreate the device files.
