Installing Adapter Hardware

The Online Addition and Replacement feature, OLAR for HP-UX 11i v3, or OL* for HP-UX 11i v2 and later HP-UX releases, enables PCI host bus adapters to be added or replaced without shutting down and rebooting the system, and without adversely affecting other system components. The system hardware uses slot-specific power control, combined with HP-UX operating system support, to enable these features.

Confirm whether OLAR or OL* are supported on the system in wich you plan to install a Fibre Channel adapter. See the HP Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter Support Matrix, at:http://docs.hp.com/en/netcom.html#Fibre%20Channel

For detailed instructions on using OLAR on HP-UX 11i v3, see Chapter 2 of Configuring HP-UX for Peripherals, which can be accessed at:http://docs.hp.com/en/hpux11i.html

For detailed instructions on using OL* on HP-UX 11i v2 and later HP-UX releases, see the Interface Card OL* Support Guide and the Interface Card OL* Support Matrix at: http://docs.hp.com/en/hpux11iv2.html

NOTE HP rp54xx servers have slot restrictions for OLAR.

PCI slots 1 through 4 do not support OLAR. In these servers, use PCI slots 5 through 12 for OLAR.

IMPORTANT Superdome systems are not intended to be maintained by customers. HP recommends that Superdome systems only be opened by a qualified HP service engineer. Failure to observe this recommendation can invalidate any support agreement or warranty to which you may be entitled.

Fibre Channel Adapter InstallationVerifying the Fibre Channel Adapter Installation

Verifying the Fibre Channel Adapter InstallationTo verify that your Fibre Channel Adapter has been correctly installed, follow these steps:

Step 1. Enter the following command:

ioscan -f

Step 2. Verify that the correct drivers appear for each installed adapter. If all drivers display, proceed to the next section, “Verifying Connectivity” on page 29.

Sample ioscan output:

NOTE The third column represents the hardware path of the slot in which the adapter is installed. The hardware path is different for each installed adapter.

If an installed Fibre Channel adapter requires the fcd driver and the appropriate driver does not appear as shown above, the driver is not installed.

If the ioscan output is similar to the following:

fc 0/0/2/1/0 UNCLAIMED UNKNOWN

HP-UX detected the adapter, but the drivers are not properly loaded.

If the correct driver is installed, but the adapter does not show in the ioscan output, the driver is not recognizing the adapter.

Step 3. If the ioscan output indicates a problem, contact HP for assistance.

Chapter 228

Fibre Channel Adapter InstallationVerifying Connectivity

Verifying ConnectivityOnce your HP Fibre Channel Mass Storage software and hardware is installed and running, follow these steps to verify connectivity:

Step 1. Check the state of all Fibre Channel hardware and interfaces. Enter the ioscan command and verify that the Hardware State and the HW-Interface State are CLAIMED.

If the Fibre Channel device file has not been created, enter the following commands:

# insf -e

# ioscan -f

Step 2. Verify that all devices you attached to the Fibre Channel adapter are listed in the ioscan output. For example, if you have a direct attach Fibre Channel device attached to the system, the ioscan output may look like the following:

8/12.8.0.255.0.1.0 sdisk CLAIMED DEVICE DGC C3400WDR5

The example above is the hardware path of LUN0 of a directly attached Fibre Channel Mass Storage device with Loop ID of 1. For details on interpreting hardware paths for Fibre Channel devices, see “Interpreting Hardware Paths” on page 30.

If all attached devices are not listed or appear as UNCLAIMED, see the Troubleshooting and Maintenance chapter of the HP Fibre Channel Adapters Support Guide.

Port Depends on the Fibre Channel topology of the HBA and the target device, and on the LUN addressing method used.

For LUNs with Peripheral Device Addressing, the value of this field is always 255.

For other LUN methods, the value of this field is the least significant byte of the N_Port ID of the target device.

For other LUN methods, the value of this field is the Loop ID of the target device.

Bus Depends on the Fibre Channel topology of the HBA and the target device, and on the LUN addressing method used.

For LUNs with Peripheral Device Addressing, the value of this field is the upper 4 bits of the least significant byte of the N_Port ID of the target device.

For LUNs with Peripheral Device Addressing, the value of this field is the upper 4-bits of the Loop ID of the target device.

For LUNs with Logical Unit Addressing, the value is the Bus Number field of the LUN.

For LUNs with Volume Set Addressing (Flat Space Addressing), the value is bits 7 - 13 of the LUN.

Target Depends on the Fibre Channel topology and the LUN addressing method used.

For LUNs with Peripheral Device Addressing, the value of this field is the lower 4-bits of the third byte of the N_Port ID of the target device.

This field usually corresponds to the Arbitrated Loop Physical Address (AL_PA) of the target device.

With Peripheral Device Addressing, the value of this field is the lower 4-bits of the Loop ID of the target device.

For LUNs with Logical Unit Addressing, the value is the Target field of the LUN.

For LUNs with Volume Set Addressing (Flat Space Addressing), the value is bits 3 - 6 of the LUN.

LUN Depends only on the LUN addressing method used.

Fibre Channel devices can connect to a fabric using either Direct Fabric Attach or Public Loop. Different devices can have different types of connections to the same fabric; for example, an HBA can have a Direct Fabric Attach connection to the fabric, while an array has a Public Loop connection to the same fabric.

Public Loop devices have an Arbitrated Loop Physical Address (AL_PA). The AL_PA usually appears in the least significant byte of the device's N_Port ID. Direct Fabric Attach devices do not have an AL_PA and the least significant byte of their N_Port ID is usually 0. This is dependent on the switch implementation. Not all switches adhere to this scheme.

Some switches enable devices in Private Loop mode to connect to a fabric. These switches typically translate the Private Loop device as either a Public Loop or Direct Fabric Attach device to the rest of the fabric. These switches also typically translate the rest of the fabric as Private Loop devices to the Private Loop device.

Troubleshooting and Maintenancefcmsutil

fcmsutilUse the fcmsutil command-line diagnostic tool with the following host bus adapters:

• AD300A• AB378B• AB379B• AB378A• AB379A• A6826A• A9782A• A9784A• AB465A

Use the fcmsutil command to perform test and echo functions, read card registers, and display information such as the N_Port ID, Node World-Wide Name, Port World-Wide Name, link speed, chip revision number, Vital Product Data (VPD) information and more. When you use fcmsutil with dual port adapters, each port is accessed and configured independently through the appropriate device driver.

CAUTION The fcmsutil command is a powerful diagnostic tool that can cause problems if used incorrectly. Read and understand the manpage carefully before using fcmsutil.

The primary fcmsutil options for system administrators are:

• echo• test• reset• get

For detailed information on this utility and its options, see the fcmsutil manpage.

To use fcmsutil, you must know the device file name. Enter the following command to determine the device file:

ioscan -fknd fcd

The output varies depending on the device. A sample follows:

Auto-Speed Negotiation

The A6826A, A9782A, A9784A and AB465A adapters are capable of transferring data at 1 Gb or 2 Gb per second. The AB378A, AB378B, AB379A, and AB379B are capable of 1 Gb, 2 Gb or 4 Gb per second. The adapters automatically negotiate to find the highest speed common to the port and the infrastructure connecting the port. Each port on dual port adapters negotiates speed independently.

To display the link speed along with other existing adapter information, enter the following command:

fcmsutil <device_filename>

Once the adapter has negotiated a transfer speed, it does not attempt to negotiate again unless a link fails or it detects a chip reset.

Device Replacement without System Reboot

The fcmsutil <device_file> replace_dsk <remote-N-Port-ID> command described in this section enables target device replacement without a system reboot. This command is available for Fibre Channel adapters or Fibre Channel combination cards that use the fcd driver, including the following:

Chapter 340



For more information on this command, see the fcmsutil (1M) manpage.

When the fcd driver discovers a new target device, it creates a hardware path for that device based on the N_Port ID. The N_Port ID is the Fibre Channel address for a device, and a way of identifying the device in a Storage Area Network (SAN). The fcd driver will also associate a device’s World Wide Name (WWN) with its N_Port ID.

Each time the fcd driver opens a target device at an N_Port ID, it compares the WWN for the target device to the WWN of the driver associated with the N_Port ID for that device, when the device was discovered. If the WWNs are not the same, the fcd driver logs an error message and does not allow access to that device. This prevents data corruption if a target device is connected through an N_Port ID that belongs to a different target device; for example, if two JBODs are plugged into each other’s switch ports by mistake.

If you want to intentionally replace a target device, for example a bad disk, use the fcmsutil <device_file> replace_dsk <remote-N-Port-ID> command to force the fcd driver to recognize a new target device at an N_Port ID that was previously used by a different target device. The replace_dsk command replaces the device WWN that is currently associated with a particular N_Port ID with the WWN of the device that is actually connected through that N_Port ID at the time the replace_dsk command is executed.

The association between a target device WWN and an N_Port ID persists until the system is rebooted, or the fcmsutil <device_file> replace_dsk <remote-N-Port-ID> command is executed for that N_Port ID.

Troubleshooting and MaintenanceEvent Monitoring Service

Event Monitoring ServiceEvent Monitoring Service (EMS) notifies you when an event occurs on the system.

A hardware event monitor monitors the hardware for unusual behavior (known as an event) and sends a message to the EMS, which notifies you of the event and provides suggestions for correcting the problem. This service is available for all of the Fibre Channel host bus adapters.

Fibre Channel Adapter Monitor

The Fibre Channel Adapter Monitor monitors the operation of all supported fibre channel host bus adapter cards on your system. If the monitor detects a problem with any of the adapters, it immediately sends an event to EMS, which alerts you using the notification methods defined for the monitor. Error messages identify the problem, its cause, and corrective actions.

The Fibre Channel Adapter Monitor employs asynchronous event detection. The monitor continuously checks for any errors or abnormal behavior reported by the device driver during I/O operations. If an error occurs, it passes directly to the monitor for immediate analysis. If the error warrants notification, the monitor immediately generates an event.

The monitor launches automatically when the system starts, ensuring protection for all supported Fibre Channel adapters from undetected hardware failure.

Supported Products

The Fibre Channel Adapter Monitor supports the following products:


Installing and Configuring Support Tools Manager and EMS

System requirements:

• HP-UX computer (servers or workstations)

• HP-UX 11i v1, 11i v2, 11i v3, or later HP-UX operating system versions

• Support Plus Media CD

• If you are using ServiceGuard (optional), check for the correct version you must have for HP-UX 11i v1, 11i v2 or later HP-UX operating system versions

Chapter 344

Troubleshooting and MaintenanceEvent Monitoring Service

Procedure

Step 1. Install the Support Tools Manager (STM) from the latest Support Plus Media CD. The EMS hardware monitors automatically install when you install STM.

a. Enter the following command to see if STM is installed on your system:/usr/sbin/cstm

The message --Information-- Support Tools Manager should appear on your screen, indicating that STM is installed on your system.

b. If this does not appear, STM needs to be installed. For instructions on how to install STM see Chapter 5, “Using the Support Plus Media to Install Diagnostics”, in the manual Support Plus: Diagnostics User's Guide, available at:http://docs.hp.com/diag/index.html

Step 2. Examine the list of supported products to see if any of your devices have special requirements to be monitored.

Step 3. Add or modify monitoring requests to customize the monitoring configuration for your system.

Step 4. (Recommended) Verify that monitors are correctly operating; for example, simulate a hardware failure or event and view the logs.

The default hardware monitoring configuration meets most monitoring requirements. By default, messages regarding warning, serious, and critical events are written to /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log and sent to the root e-mail address. All events are also stored in /var/opt/resmon/log/event.log.

If you must customize the default monitoring configuration, you can add or modify monitoring requests as needed.

Chapter 3 45

Troubleshooting and MaintenanceOffline Diagnostics Environment (ODE)

Offline Diagnostics Environment (ODE)All HP Fibre Channel adapters support the HP Offline Diagnostics Environment (ODE). ODE is an offline support tools platform for troubleshooting HP/9000 and HP Integrity systems running without an operating system, or systems that cannot be tested using online tools. The offline environment is also useful for testing before a system is booted.

ODE provides a user-friendly interface for diagnostics and utilities developed to run in an offline environment.

ODE has a distributed architecture consisting of several modules. Each module has a specific function and uses well defined protocols to communicate with the other modules.

You can use either the command-line interface or the menu-driven interface. The command-line interface enables you to select tests and utilities to execute on a specific hardware module. The menu-driven interface enables you to specify the hardware module to be tested, then ODE selects the appropriate tests to execute on the module.

ODE consists of the following:

Test Controller Acts as the user interface and launches the execution of the Test Modules.

Test Modules Diagnostic or utility programs designed to execute within ODE. These modules exercise or diagnose user-specified hardware units.

System Library (SysLib) A set of common routines for use by both the Test Controller and the Test Modules. These routines perform I/O, string parsing, and system control.

For more information on ODE, see the Itanium Processor Family (IPF) Offline Diagnostics and Utilities CD Overview at:http://docs.hp.com/en/diag.html#Offline%20Diagnostics

Troubleshooting and MaintenanceFibre Channel Device Scanning Policy Configuration for HP Integrity Systems

Fibre Channel Device Scanning Policy Configuration for HP Integrity SystemsThe drvcfg utility is an EFI shell command that can be used to set the Device Scanning Policy in the Fibre Channel EFI driver.

The -s option for the drvcfg utility provides two enumeration policy options for Fibre Channel: 0 and 1. With this setting, the Fibre Channel driver only scans devices that are in the current boot order list in NVRAM. If option 1 is selected, the Fibre Channel driver scans all the devices connected to the Fibre Channel cards installed on the system. Review the EFIFCScanLevel setting in the drvcfg utility for more information.

NOTE When the setboot command is invoked on a device, that device is added implicitly to the boot order list as a primary or alternate boot path. When HP-UX is cold installed on a device, that device is automatically set as the primary path by the implicit invocation of setboot during the installation process.

For more information on using the drvcfg utility, enter help drvcfg at the EFI shell prompt.

C Additional Features

This chapter discusses the SNIA Application Programming Interface that can be used with the Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapters.

Appendix C 65

Additional FeaturesFibre Channel SNIA HBA API

Fibre Channel SNIA HBA APISoftware applications managing SANs require information from host bus adapters (HBAs) to operate. Every vendor, operating system, and platform provides HBA information differently.

The HP Fibre Channel Storage Network Industry Association Host Bus Adapter Application Programming Interface (FC SNIA HBA API) is a C library interface that was created to provide a common HBA API library for all Fibre Channel HBA vendors, and a vendor specific API library for HP supported Fibre Channel adapters. The API is part of the driver software. It is loaded when you install the driver.

HP created the FC SNIA HBA API for programmers who want to use this API to write applications for managing SANs. This API can be used with the Fibre Channel host bus adapters using the FCD driver.

At a high level, the common HBA library handles multiple vendor implementations of the API by dynamically loading libraries. At a lower level, a vendor-provided library provides vendor-specific implementations of the API.

The FC SNIA HBA API supports multithreading and OLAR on OLAR supported platforms and adapters.

The Fibre Channel SNIA HBA API Programmer's Guide is available at:http://docs.hp.com/en/netcom.html#Fibre%20Channel

It is also available on the HP-UX Instant Information CD delivered with your HP-UX product updates.
