fcp-bind-WWPN="50001fe100270938:lpfc2t20",
NOTE:
Replace the WWPNs in the example with the WWPNs of your array ports. For an EVA8000, you
can add up to eight targets.
For each LUN that will be accessed, add an entry to the /kernel/drv/sd.conf file. For ex-
ample, if you want to access LUNs 1 and 2 through all four paths, add the following entries to
the end of the file:
name="sd" parent="lpfc" target=20 lun=1;
name="sd" parent="lpfc" target=21 lun=1;
name="sd" parent="lpfc" target=30 lun=1;
name="sd" parent="lpfc" target=31 lun=1;
name="sd" parent="lpfc" target=20 lun=2;
name="sd" parent="lpfc" target=21 lun=2;
name="sd" parent="lpfc" target=30 lun=2;
name="sd" parent="lpfc" target=31 lun=2;
•
Reboot the server to implement the changes to the configuration files.
•
If LUNs have been preconfigured in the /kernel/drv/sd.conf file, use the devfsadm command
to perform LUN rediscovery after configuring the file.
NOTE:
The lpfc driver is not supported for Sun StorEdge Traffic Manager/Sun Storage Multipathing. To
configure an Emulex FCA using the Sun SAN driver stack, see
"Configuring the FCAs with the Sun SAN driver
Configuring QLogic FCAs with the qla2300 driver
See the latest HP StorageWorks 4400 Enterprise Virtual Array release notes or contact your HP
representative to determine which QLogic FCAs and which driver version HP supports with the qla2300
driver. To configure QLogic FCAs with the qla2300 driver:
•
Ensure that you have the latest supported version of the qla2300 driver (see
gic.com).
•
Edit the following parameters in the /kernel/drv/qla2300.conf driver configuration file to
set up the FCAs for a SAN infrastructure:
hba0-connection-options=1;
hba0-link-down-timeout=60;
hba0-persistent-binding-configuration=1;
•
If using a single FCA and no multipathing, edit the following parameters to reduce the risk of data
loss in case of a controller reboot:
hba0-login-retry-count=60;
hba0-port-down-retry-count=60;
