Select the See support and troubleshooting information button. Using the HP model number as your guide, enter the CNA model number in the for product box. Select Manuals. HBA installation instructions for Linux This section describes additional Linux installations required for HBAs. HP StorageWorks Emulex Adapters Release Notes 13 NOTE: If you have both CNAs and Fibre Channel HBAs installed in your system, then you should load and use the CNA drivers. Installing the Linux device driver using the Red Hat in-box driver For instructions on how to install Linux while using the in-box driver, see the HP website http:// www.hp.com, and then search for device mapper + boot + san. If you require multiple-path redundancy, after installing the operating system, you must install the HP-supplied Device Mapper Multipath Kit. Go to the HP website http://www.hp.com/go/ devicemapper. You must also install the new HP Fibre Channel Enablement Kit (hp-fc-enablement), after installing the operating system (see “Installing the HP Fibre Channel Enablement Kit” on page 14). Installing the HP Fibre Channel Enablement Kit The HP Fibre Channel Enablement Kit provides additional libraries and configuration utilities to enable HP StorageWorks Fibre Channel storage arrays to work with Linux. The kit is not required to use the lpfc and qla2xxx kernel modules, but it provides configuration scripts to ensure that HP StorageWorks Fibre Channel arrays. The Fibre Channel Enablement kit also sets the correct lpfc and qla2xxx kernel module values used with Device Mapper multipathing. NOTE: If you are using any HP management applications, you will need the HBAAPI libraries that are included in the hp-fc-enablement RPM. To install the HP Fibre Channel Enablement Kit: 1. Download the hp-fc-enablement-yyyy-mm-dd.tar.gz file for your operating system and copy it to the target server. 2. Untar the enablement kit by executing the command to create the directory, hp-fc-enablement-yyyy-mm-dd: # tar zxvf hp-fc-enablement-yyyy-mm-dd.tar.gz 3. Browse to the directory hp-fc-enablement-yyyy-mm-dd. 4. Do one of the following to execute the install.sh script: • If you are not using Device Mapper multipathing, enter the following command: # ./install.sh -s • If you are using Device Mapper multipathing, enter the following command: # ./install.sh -m The hp-fc-enablement and fibreutils RPMs are installed. 5.

The driver versions for kernel-based distributions are as follows: • Driver 7.x.x for the 2.4 kernel • Driver 8.x.x.x for the 2.6 kernel 1. Download the appropriate driver kit for your distribution where the driver kit file will be in the form of hp-lpfc-yyyy-mm-dd.tar.gz. 2. Copy the driver kit to the target system. 3. Uncompress and untar the driver kit by entering the following command: # tar zxvf hp-lpfc-yyyy-mm-dd.tar.gz 4. Change the directory to hp-lpfc-yyyy-mm-dd. 5. Do one of the following: • Enter the following command to install the Linux device driver: # ./INSTALL The command syntax varies depending on your configuration. Use the –h option of the command to list all supported options. If a driver kit is already installed, you can enter the command without any options; the script uses the current configuration. • Enter the following command to install the Linux device driver for SLES 10 SP1 only: #./INSTALL -p • Include the -m option to force the installation to failover mode. #./INSTALL –mp • Use the –s option to force the installation to single-path mode: #./INSTALL –s The INSTALL script installs the appropriate driver RPM for your configuration, and the appropriate fibreutils RPM. When the script is finished, you will either reload the Emulex driver modules (lpfc, lpfcdfc and lpfcmpl) or reboot your server. Loading the driver To load the driver, enter the following commands: # modprobe lpfc # modprobe lpfcdfc HP StorageWorks Emulex Adapters Release Notes 15 NOTE: The command modprobe lpfcdfc is for RHEL 4 Ux and SLES 9 SPX. # modprobe lpfcmpl NOTE: The command modprobe lpfcmpl is for MultiPulse configuration only. Rebooting the server To reboot the server, enter the following command: # reboot If your boot device is a SAN attached device, you must reboot your server. Verifying the RPM driver version To verify what RPM driver version is installed, use the RPM command with the -q option. # rpm -q hp-lpfc # rpm -q hp-multipulse For MultiPulse configuration only: # rpm -q fibreutils Unloading the driver To unload the driver, enter the following commands: # modprobe –r lpfcmpl NOTE: The command modprobe –r lpfcmpl is for MultiPulse configuration only. # modprobe –r lpfcdfc NOTE: The command modprobe –r lpfcdfc is for RHEL 4 Ux and SLES 9 SPX. # modprobe –r lpfc Installing HBAnyware on Linux To install HBAnyware on a Linux system: 16 1.

General restrictions and issues Ethernet Jumbo Packet The CN1000E maximum supported Ethernet Jumbo Packet frame size is 8192 bytes. Optical cable length The CN1000E maximum supported optical cable length is 40 meters. Boot From SAN DL16x and DL18x Servers Requires Extra Time to Boot From SAN. When the CN1000E adapter is used as the boot device in a DL16x or DL18x server, the server may pause for approximately 90 seconds when it is expected to start booting from the hard disk. After this delay, the boot process will resume in a normal manner. 24 Compatibility/Interoperability HP recommends that you implement zoning by CNAs/HBAs, as described in the HP StorageWorks SAN Design Reference Guide, available at: http://www.hp.com/go/sdgmanuals. FC2142SR and FC2242SR HBAs on ProLiant systems HP ProLiant DL380 (G4) servers must have System ROMPaq Firmware 4.05 P51-08/16/2005 or later to be compatible with the FC2142SR and FC2242SR. Failure to use this ROMPaq version can cause the HBAs to hang during the power-on self-test (POST). For detailed information, see the HP website: http://h18006.www1.hp.com/products/storageworks/4gbpciehba/index.html HP StorageWorks Emulex Adapters Release Notes 25 CNA/HBA Linux restrictions and issues This section describes restrictions that apply to Linux and this release of the CNAs/HBAs: • There is currently no RHEL 5 DUP available to enable boot from SAN for the CN1000E, when available this DUP will be posted on Red Hat’s site. • Firmware download in SLES10SP3 may cause system hang. When downloading firmware to the CN1000E adapters in SLES10SP3 using the OneCommand Manager or hbacmd, the download may complete but cause the system to become unresponsive or hang. Though the firmware download is successful, a hard reboot of the server may be required to enable the new firmware. • HP and Novell are evaluating a report that Reiserfs filesystems display unexpected behavior under heavy load. Other filesystems such as xfs and ext3 are not affected by this behavior. HP recommends that you use either the xfs or ext3 filesystem. This is a high priority issue that is in the process of being resolved. Once a resolution is found, a maintenance update will be available on the website: http://support.novell.com/. • HP recommends use of the ext3 filesystem in HA environments. For information on how to use other Linux filesystems in an HA environment, see section 1.2.1 in the Novell Storage Administration Guide, available at the website http://www.novell.com/documentation/sles11, and section 2.1 in the Red Hat Deployment Guide, available at the website http://www.redhat.com/docs/en-US/ Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/5.4/html/Deployment_Guide/ch-ext3.html#s1-filesystem-ext3. For information on the differences between ext2 and ext3, see the operating system documentation. • SLES 10 SP2 has an issue displaying 8 Gb HBA speed . You can correct the problem using kernel version 2.6.16.60-0.25. • Boot from SAN is not supported on the A8002A with RHEL 4 U3 and U4, IA64, or SLES 10 IA64. • Beginning with SLES 11, HP no longer supports the following arrays: MSA1000, MSA1500, EVA3000, EVA5000, XP128, and XP1024. Beginning with RHEL 5.3 and SLES 10 SP3, HP no longer supports the following arrays: MSA1000, MSA1500, EVA3000, and EVA5000. Beginning with RHEL 6.0, HP no longer supports the XP128 and XP1024. • For Modular Smart Arrays and Enterprise Virtual Array, active/passive storage arrays are supported in single-path mode only. • For the MSA2000 family of disk arrays only: • The minimum required firmware is J200P24-01. • Creating virtual disks (vdisks) online or offline without volumes during the virtual disk creation process is not supported. You must create at least one volume during the virtual disk creation. • MultiPulse is not supported. See the HP Device Mapper documentation for multipathing support. • Boot from SAN is not currently supported. • The Emulex MultiPulse 2.2.22, 2.2.38, 2.2.39 and 2.2.44 drivers supports active/active storage arrays only. • If using MultiPulse 2.1.x, you can have a maximum of four physical paths to a LUN. More than four paths can cause a failure. • If using MultiPulse 2.2.x, you can have a maximum of eight physical paths to a LUN. More than eight paths can cause failure. • MultiPulse can coexist with multipathing products such as the Emulex failover driver and Secure Path. However, MultiPulse works only with Emulex-based HBAs; it will not configure multiple paths for other HBAs in the system. • Because the order in which a switch reports Fibre Channel ports to a name server can vary, the order in which LUNs are discovered can vary between system boots. 26 HP recommends that you use the udev utility to ensure that the name of a device does not change between system boots. For detailed information, available on the websitehttp://www.kernel.org/ pub/linux/utils/kernel/hotplug/udev.html. • When using MultiPulse with SUSE Linux systems in boot from SAN configurations, HP recommends that you use the udev utility to ensure that your system boots successfully. For detailed information about this procedure, see Using the udev utility with SUSE Linux systemsin the HP StorageWorks Booting Itanium Linux systems from a storage area network application notes, available at the HP website: http://h18006.www1.hp.com/storage/saninfrastructure.html. • If you are installing the Linux operating system for the first time, load the operating system and then download and install the supported Linux HBA driver from the HP website http://welcome.hp.com/country/us/en/support.html. • XP LUNs presented to Linux hosts must start with LUN 0. • HP recommends that you implement zoning by HBA, as described in the HP StorageWorks SAN design reference guide, available on the website http://h18006.www1.hp.com/products/storageworks/san/documentation.html. • A maximum of 10 targets are supported in a boot from SAN zone. • On a sx2000 system with the default logging level, a call trace may appear in the /var/log/ messages file during failover events. • When running the scsi_info command on older XP arrays such as XP1024/128, you may see output similar to that shown in the following example. Ignore the error, and note that the XP array's WWN is not all zeros. The XP array returns inquiry data that differs slightly from that returned by EVA or MSA arrays.

Re-install fibreutils rpm from the downloaded kit. Example: #rpm –fvh fibreutils. .linux. .rpm • When an EVA4400 with embedded switch is configured in a heterogeneous SAN, HP recommends that you use a text editor to edit the HBA configuration file etc/modprobe.conf. options lpfcmpl mpl_hbeat_tmo_busy=0 Save the file, and then run the make_initrd script. HP StorageWorks Emulex Adapters Release Notes 27 # /opt/hp/hp-lpfc/make_initrd Reboot your server with the correct initrd. • EVA4400 with embedded switch is not currently supported with SLES 9 SP4. • Dynamic LUN addition and removal are supported. However, the ability to dynamically add a new LUN (or a LUN that has been previously removed) using the LUN number of a previously removed LUN is not supported. Dynamic target addition, which is defined as adding a new Fibre Channel target (such as adding a new storage array) to a SAN, is also not supported. The ability to present the new target to a Fibre Channel host bus adapter, and then prompt the operating system to do an online scan (such as using the hp_rescan utility that comes with fibreutils) is not supported with the Emulex failover driver (MultiPulse). If you add a new Fibre Channel target to a host server, you must reboot that server. • Emulex HBA driver 7.4.0.39 is needed to support QLogic switch firmware 8.0.2.2.0. CNA/HBA Windows restrictions and issues This section describes restrictions and issues for Windows and CNAs/HBAs. Windows crashdump fails Windows crashdump fails on MSA2000–series arrays, when booted from CN1000E adapter. On Windows 2003 and Windows 2008, when the operating system is booted from an MSA2000 storage array using the CN1000E adapter, the crashdump may fail on certain server models. The server may start the crashdump and display a blue stop screen but hang after displaying “initializing disk for dump.” Windows driver fails to log back in Windows driver fails to log back into Cisco Nexus 5000 switch after switch reboot. On Windows 2003 and Windows 2008, the link is not reestablished when a Cisco Nexus 5000 switch is rebooted. The work-around is to use the Nexus Shutdown and No Shutdown CLI commands to bring the port back on-line. STORport miniport driver installation restrictions If you are upgrading to the STORport miniport driver, consider the following: • The STORport miniport driver is supported only on Windows 2003 SP1 and later. • The STORport QFE must be installed before installing Multipath software. • On Windows Server 2003 systems, clients may be disconnected, generating Event ID 11 and Event ID 15 in the application log. This problem can occur under high-stress conditions due to a SCSIport miniport driver error. It can also cause network timeouts if remote computers are accessing data on drives that use the SCSIport driver on the Windows Server 2003 system. • If you are running Secure Path for Windows, you must upgrade to Secure Path 4.0c SP2 or later for Windows. STORport is not supported with earlier versions of Secure Path. Minimum requirements for 2.x STORport Driver Driver installation with HP Smart Component requires a minimum of Windows Server 2003 SP2 or SP1 with update KB932755. Apply the Microsoft STORport update (KB932755) before installing or upgrading to this version of the STORport driver. For boot installations, Windows Server 2003 SP2 install image is required, followed by the KB update. 28 HBAnyware Consider the following restrictions for HBAnyware: • You must manually uninstall any previous versions of HBAnyware before installing the drivers. • Before disabling or uninstalling an HBA using Device Manager, you must close HBAnyware. • In the presence of a failed path, HBAnyware may remove LUNs from the tree display. The display is corrected when the failed path is restored. • The installation of HBAnyware on IA64 is included in the driver smart component. There is no separate IA64 smart component for HBAnyware. • To install HBAnyware for Windows XP: 1. Download hbanyware_30a16_winxp.zip from the HP-website: ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib/software8/COL6923/co-48775-1/ hbanyware_30a16_winxp.zip 2. Unzip the zip file and run setupapps.exe. • When upgrading the x86 (W32) or x64 HBA STORport driver to 2.01a4, any existing HBAnyware installed on the server will uninstall during the driver installation. You must reinstall the latest version of HBAnyware to use the utility. • HBAnyware version 4.1a35 for Integrity is limited to CLI (Command Line Interface) only. There is no HBAnyware GUI version. WS2003 restriction for Integrity servers The 2.20.006 STORport driver is not supported on Integrity servers running WS2003. 2-Gb HBA mezzanine card restriction Emulex 2-Gb HBAs and mezzanine cards are not supported with WS2008 R2. Smart Component issues The following Smart Component issues may be observed during driver installation: • When using the Smart Component to install drivers, if the following message appears during reboot, ignore it and continue with the reboot procedure. No known issue has been observed in connection with the display of this message. The application failed to initialize because the windows station is shutting down. • Downgrading to version 2.0 or greater STORport driver does not work when initiated via the Smart Component. To downgrade an HP-branded Emulex HBA: 1. Run the Smart Component, containing the desired driver, to extract the contents to a folder. 2. Run the STORport driver installer from the extracted folder using the default values. For example: storportminiportcorekit_2-01a4 This will uninstall the current driver before downgrading to the desired driver version. • When using the Smart Component to install drivers, the following message may appear during reboot. HP StorageWorks Emulex Adapters Release Notes 29 There was a problem installing this hardware. This device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31) Uninstall and then reinstall your device. Should the above message appear, click Finish. Do not reply to Microsoft and continue with the reboot procedure. No known issue has been observed in connection with the display of this message. Secure Path 4.0c SP1 issues With Secure Path 4.0c SP1, during a rolling driver upgrade, a blue-screen error may occur under any of the following conditions: • • • • Secure Path is not supported on WS2008 or 8Gb HBAs and 8Gb mezzanine cards. The server boots from a SAN. All HBAs are accessing their LUNs in a single-path configuration. The HBA is directly attached in a single path to its own MSA controller. If the blue-screen error occurs, reboot the server and check the driver revisions to verify that the upgrade is complete on all HBAs. Upgrading to Secure Path 4.0c SP2 corrects this problem. SCSIport miniport driver issues On Windows Server 2003 systems, clients may be disconnected, generating Event ID 11 and Event ID 15 in the application log. This problem can occur under high-stress conditions due to a SCSIport miniport driver error. It can also cause network timeouts if remote computers are accessing data on drives that use the SCSIport driver on the Windows Server 2003 system. To correct this problem, install the latest Microsoft QFE from the website: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;895573 Windows boot from SAN issues • In a direct connect environment, Boot From SAN fails to boot after adding a second path to an EVA4000/6000/8000 running firmware 6.110. • Boot from SAN on c-Class blade servers fail to boot on an Active/Passive MSA1000/1500 running firmware 5.20. • In Boot from SAN configurations where there are more than two Emulex HBAs in the same zone as the boot HBA, a crash-dump may not be generated due to a time-out condition when the boot HBA interacts with the non-boot HBAs. A work-around is to reconfigure the zoning such that the boot instance (for each path) is in its own zone separate from the other non-boot HBAs. In some cases, this may also result in faster boot-up times. • When installing to storage attached to the 403621-B21 LPe1105 mezzanine card in a VC environment through a Brocade switch, both the target LUN and the WWN for the boot controller will not be visible in the zone, in the switch administrative tool. The work-around is to take note of the mezzanine card's WWN when installing it into the system, or get it from the VC manager or EFI utility. Then manually enter the WWN into the desired zone on the switch when configuring the zone. Scan for targets and continue with normal installation steps to boot from the mezzanine card. • EFI boot path configuration will not detect multiple controller ports connected to one HBA thru McData fabric. • In a BFS configuration, the installed HBAs may display different names when viewed through the device manager. This is a cosmetic condition, not a functional issue. 30 • The Emulex 81E and 82E HBAs (AJ762A and AJ763A) running the Universal Boot Image 5.03a0, does not support Boot from SAN on the DL160 G5 Proliant server. • When the Load Driver option is selected during the operating system build of a Windows 2008 server in a Boot from SAN Configuration, a multiple entry of the Emulex driver will be displayed. If multiple types of HBAs are displayed, select the first entry, then proceed. Miscellaneous Windows issues • TFTP type monitors cannot be used to install an operating system on Itanium servers. Instead, you must use a VGA type monitor. • A direct connect environment is not supported with the EVA4400, EVA4000/6000/8000 storage array (i.e., there is no FC switch between the HBA and the storage array). VMware restrictions and issues • VMware is not supported on the IA64 architecture. Citrix restrictions and issues • Citrix is not supported on the IA64 architecture. • Citrix does not support MSA1000 or MSA1500.
