Adapter driver installation verification
2
Adapter driver packages from Brocade contain the current driver, firmware, and HCM Agent for
specific operating systems. Make sure that the correct package is installed for your operating
system. Refer to the installation chapter in the
Brocade Adapters Installation and Reference
Manual
.
An out-of-date driver may cause the following problems:
•
Storage devices and targets not being discovered by the device manager or appearing
incorrectly in the host’s device manager.
•
Improper or erratic behavior of HCM (installed driver package may not support HCM version).
•
Host operating system not recognizing adapter installation.
•
Operating system errors (blue screen).
NOTE
If a driver is not installed, try re-installing the driver or re-installing the adapter hardware and then
the driver.
You can use HCM and tools available through your host’s operating system to obtain information
such as driver name, driver version, and adapter PWWNs.
Confirming driver package installation with HCM
Use the following steps to display the adapter PWWN, driver name and version, firmware name and
version, and the BIOS version currently in operation.
1. Launch HCM.
2. Select the adapter in the device tree.
3. Select the Properties tab in the right pane to display the Properties dialog box.
The dialog box displays adapter properties.
Confirming driver package installation in Windows systems
Use the Device Manager to determine driver installation. Verify if the driver is installed and
Windows is recognizing the adapter using the following steps.
1. Open the Device Manager.

For HBAs and CNAs, when you expand the list of SCSI and RAID controllers, an instance of
the adapter model should display for adapter port installed. For example, if two two-port
adapters (total of four ports) are installed, four instances of the adapter model display.
•
For CNAs only, when you expand Network adapters, an instance of Brocade 10G Ethernet
Adapter should also display for each port of the adapter installed. For example, if two
two-port adapters (total of four ports) are installed, four instances of the adapter model
display.
