Configuring Qlogic FCAs with the qla2300 driver

NOTE:
The qla2300 driver cannot be used with Sun StorEdge Traffic Manager/Sun Storage Multipathing.
To configure a Qlogic FCA using the Sun SAN driver stack, refer to
Configuring FCAs with the Sun SAN driver
Contact your HP representative to determine which QLogic FCAs and driver version HP supports with
the qla2300 driver. The qla2300 driver is not supported on x86 architecture. Configure Qlogic FCAs
with the qla2300 driver as follows:
Ensure you have the latest supported version of the qla2300 driver (available from
www.qlogic.com).
Edit the /kernel/drv/qla2300.conf driver configuration file to set up the FCA for a SAN
infrastructure:
hba0-connection-options=1;
hba0-link-down-timeout=30;
hba0-persistent-binding-configuration=1;
Persistent bindings are necessary in a fabric topology and are used to bind a SCSI target ID to a
particular WWPN (of an array port). This is required to guarantee that the SCSI target IDs will
remain the same when the system is rebooted. Persistent bindings can be set by editing the con-
figuration file or by using the Sansurfer utility. The following example illustrates the binding of
target 20 (hba instance 0) to WWPN 50060e8003285301 and the binding of target 30 (hba
instance 1) to WWPN 50060e8003285311:
hba0-SCSI-target-id-20-fibre-channel-port-name="50060e8003285301";
hba1-SCSI-target-id-30-fibre-channel-port-name="50060e8003285311";
(Replace the WWPNs above with the WWPNs for your array ports.)
With qla2300 v4.13.01 and earlier (legacy support on XP10000/XP12000):
If LUNs have been preconfigured in the /kernel/drv/sd.conf file, use the devfsadm command
to perform LUN rediscovery after configuring LUNs as explained in

With qla2300 v4.20, 5.02, or later:
Verify that the following entry is present in /kernel/drv/sd.conf:
name="sd" parent="qla2300" target=0;
Perform a reconfiguration reboot to implement the changes to the configuration files.
Use the /opt/QLogic_Corporation/drvutil/qla2300/qlreconfig –d qla2300 -s
command to perform LUN rediscovery after configuring LUNs as explained in

Configuring AMCC/JNI FCAs (legacy support XP12000 only)

Applied Micro Circuits Corporation (AMCC) merged with Jaycor Networks Incorporated (JNI) and
discontinued their FCA hardware and software products. HP recommends to migrate to different FCAs.
