Operations When Using Oracle Fibre Channel Cards
1.3
Setting Up the Server
7
Add the results in the "WWN instance management table for the server".
Example:
Physical slot
name
This completes the "WWN instance management table for the server".
1.3.2.2
Setting the Configuration File (emlxs.conf)
Set the "topology" and "link speed" by editing the configuration file "emlxs.conf".
For setting procedure and parameters, refer to
Solaris 11 OS
•
If the "/etc/driver/drv/emlxs.conf" file does not exist, copy the "/kernel/drv/emlxs.conf" file to the "/etc/driv-
er/drv" directory and add the line to the newly copied "emlxs.conf" file.
If the "/etc/driver/drv/emlxs.conf" file exists, do not copy over the file but instead add the line to the exist-
ing "emlxs.conf" file.
•
Solaris 10 OS
Edit the "/kernel/drv/emlxs.conf" file.
1.3.2.3
Setting the Configuration File (/etc/system)
1
Edit the configuration file.
Edit the configuration file (/etc/system) and specify the command queue depth.
The appropriate command queue depth is determined by the ETERNUS DX/AF model, as follows:
Model
ETERNUS DX/AF
*1: Recommended value = 1024 ¸ (number of Fibre Channel ports that are connected to a single CA
port) ¸ number of LUNs
(Round the result down)
•
Use the value of "8" if the actual result is lower.
To achieve maximum system performance, this value can be changed according to the server
•
load and the peak operating times.
The number of simultaneous command executions per CA port for the ETERNUS DX/AF is limited
•
to 1024. This value is used by multiple servers that share the CA port. A maximum of 1024 com-
mands can be executed per CA port.
