Problems Configuring HP-UX 11i
The100BT HSC-FX cards, J3514A#002 and J3516A#002, do not work
under 11i. The card is claimed, but the link does not come up.
This card is supported on K-Class, D-Class and A-180 systems. If you are
not sure whether or not the card is installed in your system, use the
appropriate command:
ioscan -kfClan | grep J3514A#002 (on K-Class)
ioscan -kfClan | grep J3516A#002 (on A-180 or D-Class)
If the card is installed, you will see the hardware path, interface number
and other details displayed on the screen.
To fix the problem, either install patch PHNE_22727 or replace the
HSC-FX card with an HSC-TX card, J3514A#001 (K-class) or
J3516A#001 (A-180 and D-Class). If you replace the card, you will also
need an FX-to-TX converter. The converter is not an HP product but has
been qualified for use with HP cards; it is made by Transition Networks,
part number C/E-100BTX-FX-04(SC).
Online addition and replacement (OLA/R) of PCI HBAs is available in
HP-UX 11i on the HP 9000 L-Class, N-Class, and Superdome systems.
This feature allows you to add or replace a failed HBA without having to
reboot the system.
SCSI HBAs: Some restrictions in the ability to perform online addition
(OLA) and/or online replacement (OLR) apply for the following SCSI
HBAs:
• A4800A
• A5149A
• A5150A
• A5159A
Why Are Some Restrictions Needed? The SCSI attributes of initiator
ID, speed, and auto termination cannot be changed online. They can be
changed only in the Processor Dependent Code (PDC) at the Boot
Console Handler (BCH) prompt; this means rebooting the system if it is
not already at the BCH prompt.
If these attributes have never been set in the PDC, they will have the
