Execute the following procedure because the WWPN is changed for the replacement of an adapter (CA) and the faulty parts like drivers etc.
Point
Before executing the following procedures, read the notes in "8.3 Replacement of the Parts of Supported Device".
Select [View] - [Refresh] from the menu.
Double-click the replaced device in the SAN view to display the view of the device. The old adaptor (CA) and module are displayed as "timeout" and the new adaptor and module are displayed.
From the "Storage view", select [Operation] - [Access Path] - [Inherit] - [Mode Start] without any icon selected. The "Access path Inheritance" dialog appears. If the new adaptor icon is dragged and dropped on the old adaptor icon (drag&drop) in this state, the Check Access Path Inheritance dialog appears. Selecting <OK> button in this dialog execute access path inheritance.
This software deletes access path setting that is based on the old adaptor information for access path inheritance in the related devices and adds the access path setting that is based on the new adaptor information in the related devices.
Device type | Settings by SSC | ||
|---|---|---|---|
Solaris OS server node | Agent available | PW008FC2A, | Change of the setting associating fjpfca.conf TID with WWPN to WWPN of a new adapter (*1) |
LP-9000, | Changes of the setting associating lpfc.conf or lpfs.conf TID and LUN with WWPN to WWPN of a new adapter | ||
HBA (other than the above cases) | No setting | ||
Agent unavailable | No setting | ||
Windows server node | Agent available/unavailable | No setting | |
Linux server node | Agent available/unavailable | No setting | |
HP-UX server node | Agent available/unavailable | No setting | |
Other server nodes | Agent unavailable | No setting | |
Fibre Channel switch | With zoning setting | Deletion of the one-to-one WWPN zoning created with the WWPN of the old adapter, and setting of the one-to-one WWPN zoning created with the WWPN of a new adapter (but no setting of an access path if port zoning does not require access path inheritance) | |
Without zoning setting | No setting | ||
*1: If the chgfcctl/clchgfc command attached to PW008FC2A, PW008FC2-G, PW008FC3, GP7B8FC1A, GP7B8FC1-G, GP7B8FC1, SE0X7F11F, SE0X7F12F driver is executed before the access path inheritance, this software does not set fjpfca.conf.
Using drag&drop operations, you can execute access path inheritance for several adapters until you select <End> button in the "Access path Inheritance" dialog.
The server node side must be restarted for server nodes that do not support hot system configuration change after a setup change.
On the server nodes that support hot system configuration change, it is necessary to execute commands that instruct the hot system configuration change for OS and HBA driver. For example, when the HBA driver is FUJITSU PCI Fibre Channel, the chgfcctl or clchgfc command must be executed.
