Driver for HP-UX - Installation Section Page 3

Unfortunately, it may be difficult to recognize that an LIP type F8 has occurred: subsequent loop events

may obscure the relevant log messages on the console or in the system log. The Emulex Digital Hub will

bypass devices sending LIP type F8, and keep the loop up and running.

Cautions and Warnings

• Updating adapter firmware or resetting an adapter while it is performing I/O may cause a system

panic. Stop all adapter I/O before updating firmware or resetting an adapter.

• For HP-UX 11.11, when updating the firmware on a dual channel adapter (except for the

LP10000DC) you must use a firmware image containing boot code. Failure to update the

firmware with an image containing boot code will make the dual channel adapter unavailable

after next system boot.

Installing the Driver

Follow these instructions to install the driver and boot the system. While it is possible to install lpfc onto

one or more clients from a server, that procedure is not covered here; refer to your HP-UX system

administration documentation for that procedure.

For ease of installation, the Emulex LightPulse utility (lputil) configuration utility is bundled and installed

with the driver.

To install the Emulex driver for HP-UX:

1. Install a supported Emulex host bus adapter in the system. Refer to the HBA's Installation

manual for specific hardware installation instructions.

2. Log on as 'root'.

3. Load the depot file from your distribution medium into a directory, referred to here as <where-

you-put-it>. The depot file name is lpfc.depot-<driver-version>.z.

4. At the shell prompt, type:

cd <where-you-put-it>

swinstall -s `pwd`/lpfc.depot-<driver-version> -x autoreboot=true LPFC

The system will reboot automatically, and the lpfc driver will be included in the HP-UX kernel.

5. Before you proceed, decide whether you must change any driver configuration parameter,

beyond the defaults established by the installation process.

6. To modify the default driver configuration parameter, rebuild the kernel and reboot the machine

using the following commands:

/usr/sbin/mk_kernel -o /stand/vmunix

sync

reboot or shutdown -r

WARNING: If a prior version of the lpfc device driver is already installed on the system, you must

uninstall it. See “Uninstalling the Driver” on page 5 for instructions.

Note: A new adapCfg.h file is copied into the opt/lpfc/conf/ directory during installation. If

this driver was previously installed and you have configuration changes you wish to

save, copy the original opt/lpfc/conf/adapCfg.h file to a safe place and transfer any

edits from the old file to the new file after installation.
