Appendix B SNIA HBA API library installation

To manage HBAs installed on Solaris OS server nodes, it is necessary to install and configure the following HBA vender's SNIA HBA API library.

B.1 SNIA HBA API library installation for Solaris

B.1.1 For PW008FC2A/PW008FC2-G/PW008FC3/GP7B8FC1A/GP7B8FC1-G/GP7B8FC1

By installing PW008FC2A, PW008FC2-G, PW008FC3, GP7B8FC1A, GP7B8FC1-G, or GP7B8FC1 drivers (FUJITSU PCI Fibre Channel 2.2.1 or 3.0), the SNIA HBA API library is installed.

Additionally, for FUJITSU PCI Fibre Channel 2.2.1, it is necessary to apply required patches (912069-17 or later). FUJITSU PCI Fibre Channel 2.2 is not supported.


B.1.2 For Emulex's LP9000, LP9002S, LP9002L, LP9802, LP10000 

Please refer to the manual of the driver and install HBAnyware (SNIA HBA API).


B.1.3 For SE0X7F11F,SE0X7F12F

After installing the SE0X7F11F or SE0X7F12F driver (FUJITSU PCI Fibre Channel 4.0 or later), the SNIA HBA API library must be changed using the following procedure:

  1. Change the link between /usr/lib/libfchba.so and /opt/FJSVpfca/sbin/libfchba.so to /opt/FJSVpfca/sbin/libfchba1.so.

    # rm /usr/lib/libfchba.so

    # ln -s /opt/FJSVpfca/lib/libfchba1.so /usr/lib/libfchba.so

  2. Reboot.

    # /usr/sbin/shutdown -y -i6 -g0

B.1.4 For XSEFC401AF,XSEFC402AF  

Setting of the SNIA HBA API library is not required as it is included in the driver handled by the operating system.

B.1.5 For SG-XPCI1FC-QF2, SG-XPCI2FC-QF2, SG-XPCI1FC-QL2, SG-XPCI2FC-QF2-Z  

The SNIA HBA API library does not require settings, as it is already included in the driver bundled with the operating system.

B.2 SNIA HBA API library installation for Linux/VMware

To manage HBA installed on a Linux/VMware server node, install the following HBA vendor's HBA API library.

B.2.1 For PG-FC105/PG-FC106/PG-FC107/PG-FC201/ PG-FC202/PG-FCD201 

+B.2.1.1 HBA API library installation check

Check whether the following two conditions are met to determine the installation status. If both the conditions are met, the HBA API library has been installed.

+B.2.1.2 HBA API library installation

B.2.2 For PG-FCD101/PG-FCD102 


+B.2.2.1 HBA API library installation check

Check whether the following two conditions are met to determine the install status. If both the conditions are met, the HBA API library has been installed.

+B.2.2.2 HBA API library installation


B.2.3 For MC-08FC11/MC-08FC31/MC-08FC41/MC-08FC51/MC-08FC61/MC-08FC71 


+B.2.3.1 HBA API library installation check

The MC-08FC11 install status checking method is similar to the methods for PG-FC105, PG-FC106, PG-FC107 and PG-FC201. For details, please refer to "B.2.1.1 HBA API library installation check".


+B.2.3.1 HBA API library installation

Please install HBAnyware (SNIA HBA API) according to the HBA card's instruction manual or the driver's manual.

B.3 SNIA HBA API library installation for Windows

To manage the HBA installed in a Windows server node, please install the following HBA vendor's SNIA HBA API library.
