SAN Manager LM Components
Pre-Installation
If you are installing SAN Manager LM on a node that is running Solaris 7, read the QLogic
HBA driver section below. Otherwise, skip to the HBA installation section on page 12.
On Solaris 7 Stations Only: Remove the QLogic HBA Driver
Solaris 7 is packaged with an OEM software package that includes a QLogic HBA driver. If
the OEM software package is installed, you must remove the OEM QLogic driver before
installing SAN Manager LM. If you connect a Solaris machine to the Fibre Channel network
while running the OEM QLogic driver, all of the devices on the SAN will be added to
/dev/rdsk
LM with its QLogic driver, only assigned devices are listed in
and

to remove the QLogic driver.
If you decide to remove this node from the SAN at a later time, enter the
following command to restore the Solaris 7 QLogic driver:

Install a Fibre Channel HBA Card Into Each Computer
1. Verify that the computer functions properly before installing the HBA.
2. Shut down the computer.
3. Install the HBA. For instructions, see your HBA installation guide.
4. Cable each computer to the hub or switch.
5. Power up the computer.
Caution
For Solaris 7 nodes, remember to start up the computer in 32-bit mode. SAN
Manager LM cannot be installed on a Solaris 7 node that is running in 64-bit
mode. To start up in 32-bit mode, enter the command
process, then enter the following command:
boot kernel/unix -r

to halt the boot
Pre-Installation Checklist
1. Does the computer meet SAN Manager LM’s system requirements?
2. Is the HBA installed?
3. Is the computer attached to a SAN?
4. Is the LAN up, running, and configured so it supports the LAN IP addressing scheme?
– Will the IP address on the Solaris node work with the IP addressing scheme on the
Windows NT node(s)?
– Is the Hosts file on the Windows NT administration node updated with the Sun
node’s IP address? This is only necessary if Samba is not installed on the Sun node
or DNS Services is not configured.
– Is the
/etc/hosts
support the LAN IP addressing setup?
file on the Sun node updated with the correct IP address that will
5. Is SAN Manager LM installed and configured on at least one Windows NT node
(preferably a Windows NT primary domain controller machine) on the SAN?

Pre-Installation
6. Is SAN Manager LM licensed for Sun Solaris nodes? Run SAN Manager LM on a
Windows NT node to check your licensing information. For more information about
licensing, see the
Guide
.

7. Is the Fibre Channel network hardware (hubs, switch, etc.) powered up?
8. Are the optical/copper Fibre Channel cables properly connected to the HBAs, hubs or
switches, and storage disk array enclosures?
Have the following available:
•
The SAN Manager LM installation CD-ROM
SAN Manager LM for Solaris Release Notes
•
Fibre Channel hardware manuals

Installing SAN Manager LM
1. For Solaris 7 nodes only: Start up the node in 32-bit mode.
2. Log in as superuser.
3. Insert the SAN Manager LM CD-ROM in the CD drive.
By default, the CD-ROM mounts to the
/cdrom/sanman
directory.
If the CD does not mount automatically, enter the following command:
Note
mount -F hsfs -o ro /vol/dev/dsk/c0t2d0 /cdrom/sanman
Mount points may vary depending on your system configuration. In this
example, the CD drive is on controller 0, and c0t2d0 is the default CD-ROM
address.
4. Enter
pkgadd -d /cdrom/sanman
to add packages from the SAN Manager LM CD-
ROM.
A message similar to the following is displayed:
The following packages are available:
1 TRSANfcd Hewlett-Packard SAN Manager install set
(sparc) version 1.0.0
2 TRSANdoc SAN Manager documentation
(sparc) version 1.0.0
Select package(s) you wish to process (or 'all' to process all packages). (default: all) [?,??,q]:
