CHAPTER 4 PCI Card Hot Maintenance in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6
4.6 Hot Replacement of PCI Express Cards
used (to set the access right for each server). Their settings would need to be changed as a result of FC
card replacement.
6. Power on the PCI Express slot.
See 'Powering on and off PCI Express slots' in
7. Check whether there is an error in added FC card by MMB Maintenance Wizard.
This step is performed by the field engineer in charge of your system.
For details on the operation of replacement, see step 8 to 11 of 'Operation for Hot replacement of PCI
Express card by Maintenance Wizard' in
8. Check the version of the firmware
It is required that the firmware version of new FC card is same as that of the FC card which had been
replaced. If the firmware version of new FC card is coincident with that of the FC card which had been
replaced (current firmware version), it is not necessary to update the firmware version of new FC card to
current firmware version.
If the firmware version of new FC card is not coincident with that of the FC card which had been replaced
(current firmware version), update the firmware version of new FC card to current firmware version.
For how to update the firmware version, see Firmware update manual for fibre channel card.
Note
If you cannot confirm the firmware version of the FC card before replacing due to the fault of the FC card,
check the firmware version of the FC card which is same type as the faulty one to update firmware
version.
9. Confirm the incorporation results.
'Confirming the FC card incorporation results'
FC card again by restarting applications as needed or by other such means.
10. Perform the necessary post-processing.
If you stopped any other application in step 1, restart it too as needed.
Confirming the FC card incorporation results
Confirm the incorporation results of the FC card and the corresponding driver in the following method. Then,
take appropriate action. Check the log. (The following example shows a log of FC card hot plugging.)
As shown below, the output of an FC card incorporation message and device found message as the log
output to /var/log/messages after the PCI Express slot containing the mounted FC card is enabled means that
the FC card was successfully incorporated.

The ¥ at the end of a line indicates that there is no line feed.
If only the message in (*1) is displayed but the next line is not displayed or if the message in (*1) is not
displayed, the FC card replacement itself was unsuccessful. (See Note below.) In this case, power off the slot
once. Then, check the following points again:
- Whether the FC card is correctly inserted into the PCI Express slot
- Whether the latch is correctly set
Eliminate the problem, power on the slot again, and check the log.
If the message in (*1) is displayed but the FC linkup message in (*2) is not displayed, the FC cable may be
disconnected or the FC path may not be set correctly. Power off the slot once. Confirm the following points
again.
- Confirm the FC driver setting.
The definition file containing a description of the driver option of the FC driver (lpfc) is identified with the
following command.
Example: Description in /etc/modprobe.d/lpfc.conf
# grep -l lpfc /etc/modprobe.d/*
/etc/modprobe.d/lpfc.conf
Confirm that the driver option of the FC driver (lpfc) is correctly set. For details, contact the distributor
where you purchased your product, or your sales representative.
