2 Installing the HBAs

This chapter describes how to install the HBAs.

•

Installation prerequisites, page 13

•

Installation procedure, page 13

Refer to your host documentation for installation instructions.

WARNING!

Disconnect the host from the power source before installing the HBA. To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the internal server or workstation components to cool before touching.

WARNING!

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage electronic components. Ensure that you are properly grounded before beginning this procedure as described in "Electrostatic discharge"onpage 26.

Installation prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure that:

• You have an optical multimode cable with an LC duplex connector.

• You record the HBA’s serial number, in the unlikely event that the NVRAM is corrupted. Each HBA

has a unique serial number located on the bottom of the HBA.

Installation procedure

To install

1. Check the motherboard and make any necessary conﬁguration changes to accommodate the HBA.

2. Turn off the computer.

3. Disconnect the power cable.

4. Open and

5. Locate the slot in which you will install the HBA, and remove the slot cover.

3 Installing and conﬁguring the Linux driver

This chapter provides instructions for installing the Linux qla2xxx driver (xxx is the kit date string) for the PCI-X 2.0 single-port and dual-port HBAs on an already installed Red Hat™ Enterprise Linux (Red Hat EL) or SUSE™Linux Enterprise Server (SUSE SLES) system.

You can obtain the software kit for the driver from the following HP web site:

ttp://h18006.www1.hp.com/storage/saninfrastructure.html.

To install the driver, you must be familiar with the operating system under which the HBA is to operate, and have access to standard system documentation.

To install the driver, use the procedures and information in the following sections:

• Prerequisites, page 15

• Installing the driver kit,page15

•

Using the RPM,page 16

•Conﬁguring the HBAs,page17

Prerequisites

Perform the following tasks before you install the drivers:

d system documentation.

Installing the driver kit

HP recommends that you install the complete driver kit for these HBAs. The kit contains the driver and utilities you need to deploy these HBAs on Linux.

NOTE:

You must install the gcc compiler and the kernel sources or kernel development packages on your system before installing the driver kit.

To install the complete HP driver kit, copy the .gz ﬁle to your system and enter the following commands: # tar -zxvf hp_qla2x00-xxx.tar.gz # cd hp_qla2xxx # ./INSTALL

The xxx is thekit datestring.

Using the RPM

The RPM Package Manager (RPM) is a package management system that lets you easily install Linux software. Using RPM, you can install software in prebuilt bundles called RPM packages.

This section is included for reference only. See this section for future separate RPM installations you may need.

For example:

• To install the RPM, copy the RPM package ﬁle to your system and enter the following command:

# rpm -ivh pa

• To manually install the Linux HBA driver RPM, enter the following command:

# rpm -ivh hp_qla2xxx.rpm

• To upgrade

•For Red Hat EL, enter:

# rpm -Uvh --nopostun --nopreun package_name.rpm

• For SUSE SL

# rpm -Uvh package_name.rpm

• To uninstall the RPM package, enter the following command:

# rpm -e pa

ckage_name.rpm

the RPM, copy the RPM package ﬁle to your system and enter the following command:

ES:

ckage_name.rpm

Installing the ﬁbreutils RPM

HP recommends installing the ﬁbreutils RPM found in the driver kit. It contains useful utilities for managing Fibre-attached storage. To manually install this RPM, enter the following command:

# rpm -ivh fibreutils-version.rpm

Changing driver parameters

1. Run the set_parm script located in the /opt/hp/src… directory.

2. Reboot the server.

evices.

Starting the Conﬁguration protocol

To conﬁgure the HBA on Linux, access the Conﬁguration protocol as follows:

1. Use the ﬁbreutils RPM package to obtain efiutil (efiutil.efi) and the auxiliary driver, as

described in "Installing the ﬁbreutils RPM" on page 16.

2. Power on the server to the EFI shell.

3. Start efiutil as follows (the auxiliary driver is automatically loaded if it is needed):

a. Set the drive to the boot device (for example, fs1:). b. Change to the directory containing efiutil. For example, enter:

cd efi\qla2xxx

c. Run eﬁutil:

efiutil.efi Enter Help at any time for information about commands.

d. Select the HBA channel that you want to conﬁgure by selecting adapter. e. Select conﬁgure.

4. Conﬁgure the HBA’s NVRAM by selecting the menu items for the parameters to be changed, as

described in "Using the Driver Conﬁguration menu" on page 18.

5. Write the new conﬁguration to NVRAM.

6. Exit the utility (select quit).

7. Reboot the system.

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

• 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 par

• Avoid touching pins, leads, or circuitry.

• Always be properly grounded when touching a static-sensitive component or assembly (see

"Ground

ts on a grounded surface before removing them from their containers.

ing methods" on page 26).

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.
