  • Page 2: Abstract

    For information on the latest firmware versions for server and storage systems, visit the HP website at http://welcome.hp.com/country/us/en/support.html?jumpid=hpr_R1002_USEN. Supported Fibre Channel switches The matrix at ftp://ftp.compaq.com/pub/products/servers/support/Boot_from_SAN_Fibre_Channel_Switch_Supp ort_Matrix.pdf lists which ProLiant servers are supported for Fibre Channel switch and HP StorageWorks array combination that supports booting from SAN.

  • Page 3: Setting Up Lun On Hp Storageworks Arrays And Zoning On Fibre Channel Switches

    Setting up LUN on HP StorageWorks arrays and zoning on Fibre Channel switches NOTE: All supported OSs must be zoned to only have a single path to the target LUN during an OS install. After installation, a multi-path driver (MPIO, SecurePath, etc.) must be installed before multiple paths are presented to the host.

  • Page 4: Deploying The Os By Rapid Deployment Pack Overview

    Deploying the OS by Rapid Deployment Pack overview IMPORTANT: These instructions illustrate how to use Windows Edition 3.00 (or greater) to deploy an OS on a ProLiant BL server with a QLogic Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter (FC HBA) that boots from an HP StorageWorks Storage Area Network (SAN).
  • Page 5 NOTE: To determine the target server's computer id: For Windows Edition, right-click on the target server, select Properties, select General, and then look for the ID field. For Linux Edition, click on New Computers or All Computers. Move the mouse cursor over the target server. In the browser status bar, the computer's ID is shown in the link description as ID=.

  • Page 6: Scripted Installs

    Scripted installs If multiple LUNs are visible to the HBA, by default the Red Hat Linux kickstart file will install Linux partitions across the available LUNs. In most cases, it is desirable to place the OS partitions on the first LUN. To do this, copy and rename the desired kickstart file and add the following to the end of each part command: --ondisk=sda On Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3, you must specify the location of the bootloader.
