To mask devices or LUNs, do not format devices, assign drive letters, nor save the
disk configuration.
In Windows 2000/Windows Server 2003, use the computer management utility to
view which target devices are configured on which HBAs, and to view and format
devices and LUNs that are found.
In NetWare, use Scan all LUNs and List Storage Adapters commands to view which
target devices are configured on which HBAs. You can use the nwconfig utility or
hdetect utility to view the devices and LUNs that are found.
In Linux, open /var/log/messages to view which target devices are configured on
which HBAs. Entries are also created for each HBA recognized by the driver. Each
entry contains information about target devices and LUNs that are found.
In Solaris, open /var/adm/messages to view which target devices are configured on
which HBAs.

Before installing the device driver, verify the presence of HBAs at
power up using the QLogic Fast!UTIL FC HBA BIOS utility. Type
ALT+Q or CTRL+Q during power up to enter Fast!UTIL. Fast!UTIL
allows you to perform basic HBA configuration. Fast!UTIL can verify
device connectivity for loop and hub topologies, but does not find
devices on fabric configurations.
Some operating systems, for example, Windows® 2000, come from the
operating system manufacturer with a QLogic miniport device driver. This
device driver is a standard driver and does not contain the extended
features required to run with SANsurfer FC HBA Manager. You must install
the most current device driver to support features such as LUN masking.
The most current device driver versions can be found at the QLogic web
site (support.qlogic.com).
Verify that HBAs recognize target devices by using operating system
device configuration utilities, or use SANsurfer FC HBA Manager to
display target devices found on an HBA.
