hba0-port-down-retry-delay=2;
The hba0-port-down-retry-delay parameter is not supported with the 4.13.01 driver; the
time between retries is fixed at approximately 2 seconds.
In a fabric topology, you use persistent bindings to bind a SCSI target ID to the world wide port
name (WWPN) of an array port. This ensures that the SCSI target IDs remain the same when the
system reboots. You set persistent bindings by editing the configuration file or by using the
SANsurfer utility.
The following example for an EVA4000/6000 illustrates the binding of targets 20 and 21 (hba
instance 0) to WWPNs 50001fe100270938 and 50001fe100270939, and the binding of targets
30 and 31 (hba instance 1) to WWPNs 50001fe10027093a and 50001fe10027093b:
hba0-SCSI-target-id-20-fibre-channel-port-name="50001fe100270938";
hba0-SCSI-target-id-21-fibre-channel-port-name="50001fe100270939";
hba1-SCSI-target-id-30-fibre-channel-port-name="50001fe10027093a";
hba1-SCSI-target-id-31-fibre-channel-port-name="50001fe10027093b";
NOTE:
Replace the WWPNs in the example with the WWPNs of your array ports. For an EVA8000, you
can add up to eight targets.
If the qla2300 driver is version 4.13.01 or earlier, for each LUN that users will access add an
entry to the /kernel/drv/sd.conf file:
name="sd" class="scsi" target=20 lun=1;
name="sd" class="scsi" target=21 lun=1;
name="sd" class="scsi" target=30 lun=1;
name="sd" class="scsi" target=31 lun=1;
If LUNs are preconfigured in the/kernel/drv/sd.conf file, after changing the configuration
file. use the devfsadm command to perform LUN rediscovery.
If the qla2300 driver is version 4.15 or later, verify that the following or a similar entry is present
in the /kernel/drv/sd.conf file:
name="sd" parent="qla2300" target=2048;
To perform LUN rediscovery after configuring LUNs, use the following command:
/opt/QLogic_Corporation/drvutil/qla2300/qlreconfig –d qla2300 -s
Reboot the server to implement the changes to the configuration files.
NOTE:
The qla2300 driver is not supported for Sun StorEdge Traffic Manager/Sun Storage Multipathing.
To configure a QLogic FCA using the Sun SAN driver stack, see
"Configuring the FCAs with the Sun SAN driver

Fabric setup and zoning

To set up the fabric and zoning:
1.
Verify that the Fibre Channel cable is connected and firmly inserted at the array ports, host ports,
and SAN switch.
