Installing the A6829A Adapter
Specifying SCSI Parameters
Setting Maximum Data Transfer Rate for A6829A Host Bus
Adapter Installed in PA-RISC Based System
If the HP A6829A HBA is installed in a supported PA-RISC based
system, use the BCH menu to set the maximum data transfer rate.
The steps for setting the maximum data transfer rate through the BCH
menus (if you do not want to use the default suggested by the system's
firmware) are mentioned later in this section.
NOTE
The following steps and examples are specific to an hp server rp7410.
Menus, command syntax, and responses might be slightly different on
other systems (for example, a maximum data transfer rate of Ultra2 is
not allowed on some HP-UX systems).
For command syntax and valid maximum data transfer rate values, HP
recommends you to use the online help for the scsi command (type
help scsi when you are in the BCH "Service Menu").
To display and optionally change the A6829A adapter's maximum data
transfer rate in the BCH menus, perform the following steps:
Step 1. At the "Information Menu," type fv (to display the PDC version). The
output is as follows:
FIRMWARE INFORMATION
To know about the correct PDC version information, see the latest SCSI
support matrix available at
Communications section.
If you do not have a correct PDC version on your system, contact your HP
support representative.
Step 2. Determine the HBA's path by performing the following steps:
a. If you are already at the "Main Menu," type in (for "Information
30
Firmware Version:
Menu"), and then go to step b.
If you are not at the "Main Menu," type main (to return to the "Main
Menu"), type in (for "Information Menu"), and then go to step b.
