1 Installing the Emulex CNA
This chapter describes the following topics for installing the CNA:
•

“Installation prerequisites” (page 5)

•

“Installing the Emulex CNA” (page 6)

See the server documentation for additional information about installing the CNA.
WARNING! Disconnect the host from the power source before installing the CNA. To reduce the
risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the internal server or workstation components to
cool before touching.

Installation prerequisites
Before you begin, make sure you have the following items available:
•

An optical multimode cable with an LC-style duplex connector and approved SFP+ module or
copper cable

•

A server with an empty x8 PCIe bus slot

Recording reference numbers
Each CNA is shipped with the following two numbers clearly marked on the board:
•

IEEE address (Port 1 MAC address)

•

Serial number

The MAC address is a unique 48-bit identifier used when configuring the system. The Fibre Channel
industry uses the World Wide Name (WWN) derived from the MAC address for Fibre Channel
connectivity. The adapter has two ports. Therefore, it has two MAC addresses and two WWNs,
one for each port. Use the serial number when communicating with HP.
NOTE:

The factory default MAC addresses are permanent identifiers that cannot be changed.

The MAC address for Port 1 is listed on the CNA. The MAC address for Port 2 and the WWNs
are calculated based on the Port 1 address as follows:
MAC address/WWN

Calculation

Example

Port 1 MAC address

Assigned at the factory and printed
on the CNA IEEE address label

Installing the Emulex CNA
The CNA uses removable optical transceivers or copper interface cables.
CAUTION:
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage electronic components. Be sure you are properly grounded
before beginning this procedure, as described in “Electrostatic discharge” (page 9).
IMPORTANT: The CNA is only supported in PCI Express 8 lane and larger PCIe slots. This may
require optional PCIe riser cards or cages. For instructions on installing the riser card or cage, see
the server documentation.
To install the CNA into a server:
1. Be sure the server is powered off.
2. Remove the access panel.
3. Wearing an anti-static wrist strap, remove the blank panel from an empty x8 or larger PCIe
bus slot.
NOTE: The CNA comes with a standard PCIe bracket installed. A low-profile bracket is
included in the box with the CNA. The low-profile mounting bracket is shorter than the standard
bracket: approximately 7.90 cm (3.11 inches) compared to 12.06 cm (4.75 inches) long.
4.

If you require a different mounting bracket, change the bracket as follows. Otherwise, go to
Step 5.
a. Remove any transceivers or cables from the CNA transceiver cage assembly by pulling
the bail (handle) out and down to release the latch, and then gently pull the transceiver
out. Do not force it. After the latch is released, the transceiver/cable slides out easily.

message similar to the one in Figure 7 (page 9)
Figure 7 CNA BIOS example startup message

Electrostatic discharge
To prevent damage to the system, be aware of the precautions you need to follow when setting
up the system or handling parts. A discharge of static electricity from a finger or other conductor
may damage system boards or other static-sensitive devices. This type of damage may reduce the
life expectancy of the device.
To prevent electrostatic damage, observe the following precautions:
•

Avoid hand contact by transporting and storing products in static-safe containers.

•

Keep electrostatic-sensitive parts in their containers until they arrive at static-free workstations.

•

Place parts on a grounded surface before removing them from their containers.

•

Avoid touching pins, leads, or circuitry.

•

Always be properly grounded when touching a static-sensitive component or assembly (see
“Grounding methods” (page 9)).

Grounding methods
There are several methods for grounding. Use one or more of the following methods when handling
or installing electrostatic-sensitive parts:
•

Use a wrist strap connected by a ground cord to a grounded workstation or computer chassis.
Wrist straps are flexible straps with a minimum of 1 megohm (±10 percent) resistance in the
ground cords. To provide proper ground, wear the strap snug against the skin.

•

Use heel straps, toe straps, or boot straps at standing workstations. Wear the straps on both
feet when standing on conductive floors or dissipating floor mats.

•

Use conductive field service tools.

•

Use a portable field service kit with a folding static-dissipating work mat.

If you do not have any of the suggested equipment for proper grounding, have an HP-authorized
reseller install the part.
NOTE: For more information on static electricity, or assistance with product installation, contact
your HP-authorized reseller.

3 Troubleshooting
This chapter contains the following topics for information to help resolve potential CNA problems:
•

“Isolating CNA problems” (page 14)

•

“CNA LED states” (page 16)

•

“CNA startup BIOS message” (page 17)

Isolating CNA problems
This section describes how to resolve typical problems with the CNA.

Observe and collect data
The first step in troubleshooting any CNA problem is to observe and collect information about the
problem so the problem can be isolated. Consider the following:
•

If the CNA has been working, what has changed? For example, changes to switch or storage
system firmware could affect the CNA.

•

Identify the expected and observed results.

•

List as many of the observed symptoms as possible.

•

Collect relevant information including, but not limited to:
◦

CNA firmware, BIOS, and utilities revision information

◦

Applicable switch and storage subsystems revision information

◦

Operating system driver and path management revision information and log files

◦

CNA LED and startup BIOS message

Isolate the problem to the component
After collecting the data, use the data to isolate the problem to a particular component. The typical
components in a CNA solution are a server with a CNA, cables, Converged Network (CN) switch,
storage subsystem, and Fibre Channel switches. Because the focus on this chapter is the CNA, this
section describes typical CNA problem isolation.

CNA problem isolation
Most of the common problems with the CNA are either link connectivity issues, which affect both
Ethernet and Fibre Channel access, or Fibre Channel storage discovery issues.

Verify server and CNA startup BIOS messages
1.
2.

Look for server POST errors.
Verify that the CNA is detected and has the appropriate firmware. See “CNA startup BIOS
message” (page 17).

If either of these steps reveals errors, the most likely cause is a faulty CNA or the CNA is
incompatible with the server model.

Verify the CNA link
1.
2.

14

Verify that the CNA link is active by observing the CNA LEDs. See “CNA LED states” (page
16).
Verify connectivity at the CN switch port. Use the appropriate switch management utility to
display the port information and verify the CNA port WWN. See Figure 8 (page 15) and
Figure 9 (page 15) for an example of displaying the CN switch link status.

Troubleshooting

Figure 8 Example of B-series loginshow output

Figure 9 Example of C-series show interface output

3.

Observe the CN switch and CNA link error counters.

If any of these steps detect errors, the most likely causes are incompatible or faulty cables, SFPs,
or CN switch ports. Cable or SFP problems can cause a wide range of symptoms from solid to
intermittent and even performance issues. The FCoE switch port and CNA port error counters are
good indications of potential intermittent and performance problems.

Verify Fibre Channel switch zoning for FC storage
Verify that the Fibre Channel zoning and the CNA port WWNs match those displayed by the
CNA.

Verify Fibre Channel storage device discovery
After verifying startup BIOS message, link, and zoning, verify that the CNA can discover the
configured Fibre Channel storage devices.
•

The first level of CNA Fibre Channel storage device discovery is performed at the BIOS level
using the OneConnect FCoE BIOS utility. Use this utility (see “CNA startup BIOS message”

Isolating CNA problems

15

(page 17)) at system startup to discover and display the storage devices in the attached FC
fabric.
•

When the server boots, the operating system performs the next level of discovery. Using the
OneCommand Manager utility (see Figure 10 (page 16)), you can view all Fibre Channel
storage devices known to the server.
Figure 10 OneCommand Manager

If the storage controller cannot be seen, then the most likely causes are Fibre Channel zoning or
SAN connectivity between the CNA and the storage controller.
If the storage controller can be seen, but not any of its LUNs, then the most likely cause of not
seeing discrete LUNs is a LUN mapping problem.

CNA LED states
You can observe green and amber LEDs through openings in the CNA mounting bracket. See
Figure 11 (page 17). Table 1 (page 17) describes the CNA LED link states.

16

Troubleshooting

NOTE: When power is applied to the CNA, both LEDs on both ports light for approximately 10
seconds.

Link activity (Green)

Flash = activity
Off = no activity

CNA startup BIOS message
The CNA BIOS that is typically used to configure Boot from SAN (BFS) can also aid in
troubleshooting CNA installation, SAN link, and zoning configuration issues. During the system
startup the CNA startup BIOS message displays on the system console. This message provides
minimal information, such as the BIOS revision and if a CNA is configured for BFS. It also displays
the LUN path information to the boot device.
During startup, you have the option to enter the BIOS configuration utility by pressing Ctrl+E on
the system console (see Figure 12 (page 17)).

Figure 13 (page 18) shows the first screen that displays the CNA ports and their respective Port
WWNs. Use the arrow keys to select a CNA port.

Figure 14 (page 18) shows the CNA BIOS main menu. On this screen, the CNA firmware and
BIOS versions display along with the CNA Port WWN, BIOS enablement state, VLAN, and DCBX
mode. Take note of the code revisions and compare them to the latest supported version for your
server. This menu is typically used for configuring BFS. In addition to the revision configuration
information display, Scan for Target Devices is also a useful troubleshooting tool for zoning issues.
This display is limited and only displays the first LUN for each storage device detected.
Many parameters and options are available with this utility, but do not change any parameters
unless instructed by technical support.
