Fibre Channel Adapters Installation & Configuration Guide

If this command fails, perform the tasks described below:

Unmount disks

umount filesystem

for mounted file systems

varyoffvg –s volumegroup    

for all the corresponding Volume Groups

if ATF is installed, remove the 

atf

 objects:

rmdev –Rl atf(i)

if Navisphere is running, stop it:

rc.navi stop

Restart the 

rmdev –Rl fchan(i)

 command  for each Fibre Channel adapter.

3. There is no specific action to upgrade 1.2.12.x version to 1.3.3.x version: just install the

new packages, then reboot your system.

4. Use the 

SMIT 

interface (or 

installp

 command) to install the LPP on your system. Logged

as 

root

 user, type:

smit install_latest

If you are not familiar with the AIX installation procedure, refer to the 

AIX Installation Guide

for more information.

5. Check the software installation with the

 lslpp

 command.

Install the Adapter in the System

Refer to the system documentation for the procedure for installing an adapter.

Power off your machine.

Remove the front cover, side cover or rear cover, according to your system to access the
planar.

If necessary, refer to the corresponding Installation Guide.

Remove the rear cover in order to remove the cache, if any, in front of the slot where you
choose to install the Fibre Channel Board.

Plug the board in the chosen slot and secure it by screwing in the connector at the rear of
the planar. Put the cover back in its place.

Power on your machine.

Check the status.

The devices corresponding to the boards (fchan0, fchan1, ...), the remote Fibre Channel
Ports (fcp0,1), and the network interfaces (fe0, fe1, ...) are automatically created at boot
time.

Check that fchan and fcp are available, using the 

lsdev

 command.

lsdev –Cc adapter
lsdev –Cc driver
lsdev –Cc if (network interfaces)

Note:

Disks connected to Fibre Channel adapters are not bootable.

Connect the Attachment Cables

Connect the cables corresponding to the Fibre Channel Adapter. Refer to the following
figures for cabling characteristics. For more information about cabling, refer to:
