Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter for Symmetrix and CLARiiON
BootBIOS for x86 platforms and x64 platforms that support legacy BIOS. The adapter boot BIOS provides x86 boot capability through the use of INT13
system BIOS calls. The adapter Boot BIOS supports:

(1) Multi-topology: Fabric Point to Point; FC-AL: Private loop and Public loop
topologies.
(2) Multi-initiators: The adapter BIOS supports up to 32 Emulex LightPulse
adapters in a system.
(3) Multi-LUNs: The adapter BIOS supports up to 256 LUNs.
(4) Multi-boot: The adapter BIOS complies with the BIOS Boot Specification
(BBS).
(5) EDD (Enhanced Disk Drive Services): The adapter BIOS supports both the
EDD 3.0 and EDD 2.1 specifications depending on the selection in the
adapter BIOS configuration utility.
(6) Boot fail over feature: There are eight boot entries that can be
configured in the adapter BIOS configuration utility. If the first boot
entry fails the system is still able to boot from the second configured
boot entry and so on.

***** Important Note ******

(1) BIOS downloading

The adapter boot BIOS image has increased in size to 50K. As a result, it might
fail during the downloading of the BIOS .prg file. One way to correct the
problem is to download the firmware .AWC file WITHOUT the BIOS image
(for example: dd390a7.awc) and then download the adapter boot BIOS .prg file.
(2) BIOS was not activated (Enabled)

If the adapter boot BIOS is not enabled by LP6DUTIL or an Emulex O.S.
configuration utility, the adapter and the drives connected to the adapter
cannot not be configured to be used to boot the system. In addition if there is
a "No BIOS support" message displayed next to this adapter in the adapter BIOS
configuration utility the user must use LP6DUTIL or other Emulex O.S.
configuration utility to enable the adapter boot BIOS in order to allow this adapter
to be used a bootable controller by the host system.

--------------- NOTES and CAUTIONS ---------------------
** Ensure that critical files on local boot disk are backed up
as a measure of protection.

(1) This procedure assumes there is already a 'local' boot disk.

(2) The size of the intended (target) fibre channel disk should
be big enough to hold all the file systems, and swap slice
of the local current boot disk.

(3) As there will probably be more than one logical disk drive on
the fibre channel adapter it will be necessary to use persistent
binding ('nailing' a specific scsi id to a specific wwpn or did).

(4) It will be necessary to correlate the intended boot disk displayed
by the 'probe-scsi-all' command to the devices displayed by the
operating system.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

----------------------- NEW CHANGES 3.10a3 ------------------------

1. Fixed the issue for the in-correct device id of (LP21000) HBA, and
cause the system fail to initialize the (LP21000) HBA during POST.
(CR75595)
----------------------- NEW CHANGES 3.10a2 ------------------------
1. In some UNIX server, the HBA adapter does not get initialized when DR
is initiated, the cause of the issue is during DR operation, some
Forth word commands from Fcode can't use in HBA's device memory
instead it can only runs under system memory, and that makes the error
message "Segmentation Fault" by the system's Fcode interpreter. This
release fixed the issue by replace different methods for those Forth
word commands to make it compatible with the DR operation. (CR073924)
----------------------- NEW CHANGES 3.10a1 ------------------------

1. Supported multi-Luns from 0 upto 4095, added "set-max-lun" command
to allow user to select the maxmium lun support, the default max lun
is 255. (CR29372)

2. Fixed the issue on fail to update the FC boot target when system
comes up from POST. (CR29373)

3. Fixed the issue for system hangs in scan disk if the link topology
changed after system firmware discovered the bootable lun with
a different topology. (CR29019)

4. Fixed the issue on some system will fail to init the config-port when
option command "set-post-linkup" was enabled. (CR29249)

Changes and Corrections:

-- Changes and corrections between 1.92a1 and 1.91a5:

Implemeted beaconing feature for Pegasus and Thor. (CR 16592, 21846)

The R_A_TOV field is now properly expressed in milliseconds. (CR 22640)

Improved target mode "fast" POST so that power up no longer causes HBA
to hang. (CR 22594)

A timeout is prevented by allowing the firmware to process fatal DMA
engine errors even if the DMA is not complete, such as during a PCI
master abort. (CR 22641)

Various concurrent FLASH programming issues were resolved by improving
the FLASH interlocking/unlocking algorithm, implementing Intel errata,
and implementing erase failure recovery code.
(CR 21885, 21888, 21889, 21890)

We now default to allowing the PCI bridge to reorder data frames as
necessary, which may result in a system performance increase for some
systems. (CR 21867)

Improved FCP2 recovery to avoid the dropping of frames
(and the resulting delays) during REC ELS command. (CR 21865)

Fixed a recovery issue where a corrupted REC frame with a mismatching
offset would cause the HBA to loop, continually requesting recovery.
(CR 21864)

To avoid dropped receive frames in the case where an OXID is reused
for a new exchange during the ABTS/RRQ processing window, we now skip
any matching "new" exchanges which are in the RRQ state. (CR 21855)

Improved management of unavailable memory by limiting the number of
retries. The HBA now reports an error attention after retries have
been exhausted. (CR 21854)

Improved DMA error handling of split errors where host memory has been
made unavailable. (CR 21853)

Commands are now timed out properly when in FCP-2 mode. (CR 21852)

Protocol testing with invalid conditions revealed protocol response
errors which have had no reported instances of failure in the field.
(CR 21850, 21851, 21863)

An I/O timeout during tape operation was eliminated by delaying
processing of any FCP2 errors during discovery. (CR 17363)

Thor no longer deadlocks during processing of RRQ when RESET_RING is
issued with no available exchange resources. (CR 20064)

Improved operation of Pegasus Rx DMA firmware on PCI-X bus.
(CR 21542)

----------------------------------------------------------------------

1. System Requirements

The Emulex LPFC driver and LPFC DFC driver RPMs require gcc compiler
tools and the kernel sources for the running kernel be installed on
the system in order for the RPM installation to succeed. The following
distributions of Linux are supported by the Emulex drivers:

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1
SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 8 with Service Pack 3

2. Description of Changes

The lpfc-install script installs both the LPFC driver and the LPFC
DFC driver RPMs. These RPMs install their driver sources to the
/usr/src/lpfc directory, build their drivers for the currently
running kernel, and then install the drivers to the proper
directory for the currently running kernel.

Once the RPMs are installed, the lpfc-install script creates a new
ramdisk for the currently running kernel so that the 'lpfc' driver
is loaded when the kernel is initialized during system startup.
The 'elxlpfc' init script is also installed and configured to start
and stop the 'lpfcdfc' driver during system startup and shutdown.

3. Driver Installation

Please refer to the LPFC Linux 7.1 documentation on the Emulex
website at http://www.emulex.com for an installation manual that
includes a complete set of options for the lpfc-install program.

Emulex strongly recommends uninstalling any old LPFC driver kits
before installing the new driver kit. Please refer to the "Driver
Uninstallation" section to uninstall previous versions of the
Emulex LPFC 7.x or older driver.

Log in as the user 'root' to a terminal, change to the directory in
which the Emulex LPFC 7.1 driver kit is installed, and execute the
'lpfc-install' script with no options to install the driver:

./lpfc-install

Once the 'lpfc-install' script has completed successfully, the
Emulex LPFC and LPFC DFC drivers will be loaded, and fibre channel
disks that are properly connected to the system should be
accessible. However, a reboot of the system is recommended to load
the 'lpfc' driver through the ramdisk.

3. Release Notes

3.1 Red Hat Enterprise Linux 'kernel-devel' Package Requirement

For Red Hat Enterprise Linux installations, the kernel development
package with the same version as the currently running kernel must
be installed for the Application Helper Module build to succeed.
For example, a system with the 2.6.9-6.37.EL kernel would need the
kernel-devel-2.6.9-6.37.EL package, and a system with the
2.6.9-6.37.ELsmp kernel would need the
kernel-smp-devel-2.6.9-6.37.EL package.

3.2 SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 'kernel-source' Package Requirement

For SuSE Linux Enterprise Server installations, the kernel-source
package with the same version as the currently running kernel must
be installed for the Application Helper Module build to succeed.
For example, a system with the 2.6.5-7.166-bigsmp kernel would need
the kernel-source-2.6.5-7.166 package.

3. Errata

- The Emulex HBAnyware configuration utility is not supported in
this release.

- On some large configurations, with many targets and other
initiators, FC discovery may not complete before the SCSI
subsystem probes for devices. If this occurs, some SCSI devices
may not be detected at boot. The missing devices can be detected
by requesting the SCSI subsystem to rescan via /proc/scsi/scsi
and the "scsi add-single-device "
mechanism. Emulex provides a script, called lun_scan, which
automates the scan requests for Emulex adapters. This script is
contained the driver applications kit. This script can be
integrated into the system run-level transitions to ensure that
all devices are fully detected.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

1. Introduction

The DKMS (Dynamic Kernel Module System) project is maintained by
Dell. The latest version can be found at:

http://linux.dell.com/dkms/dkms.html

DKMS creates a framework where kernel dependent module source is
stored in the DKMS database. DKMS manages the building and
installation of the lpfc and lpfcdfc modules. These RPMs contain
the same lpfc source code as the non-DKMS RPMs but include DKMS in
the RPM package name to signify that the RPM includes our driver
managed by DKMS. The driver itself is the same, just the packaging
is different.
2. Installation

1. Ensure that DKMS is installed. DKMS version 2.0.5-1 or greater
is required. You may install the DKMS RPM that is included as
part of this package.

rpm -i dkms-2.0.5-1.noarch.rpm

2. Install the dkms specific lpfc driver rpm

rpm -i lpfcdriver_2.6_dkms-8.0.16.18-1.noarch.rpm

3. Install the dkms specific lpfcdfc driver rpm

rpm -i lpfc_2.6_ioctl_module_dkms-2.0.9-2.noarch.rpm
3. Post-Installation

1. Use the DKMS status command to verify that DKMS has built and
installed the drivers.

e.g.
[root]# dkms status
lpfc, 8.0.16.18, 2.6.9-22.ELsmp, i686: installed (original_module exists)
lpfcdfc, 2.0.9, 2.6.9-22.ELsmp, i686: installed

kernel must be installed for the Application Helper Module build to
succeed.

The name of the kernel development package depends upon the name of
the kernel for which the Application Helper Module will be
installed. For example, a system with the 2.6.9-11.EL kernel
would need the kernel-devel-2.6.9-11.EL package, and a system
with the 2.6.9-11.ELsmp kernel would need the
kernel-smp-devel-2.6.9-11.EL package.

Tar file containing the DKMS package installation and DKMS RPMs for the 7.1.14 and IOCTL application helper module. This kit is supported on Red Hat 2.1 and 3.0 distributions only. It automatically installs the drivers; no lpfc.conf parameter customization is needed prior to 1st driver compilation. This is an alternative installation method to using driver kits above, or drivers on the Redhat distribution CDs. (345 KB).

The DKMS (Dynamic Kernel Module System) project
is maintained by Dell. The latest version can
be found at http://linux.dell.com/dkms/dkms.html

DKMS creates a framework where kernel dependent
module source is stored in the DKMS database.
DKMS manages the building and installation
of the lpfc and lpfcdfc modules. These RPMs
contain the same lpfc source code as the non-DKMS
RPMs but include DKMS in the RPM package name to
signify that the RPM includes our driver managed by DKMS.
The driver itself is the same, just the packaging
is different.
DKMS RPMs for Emulex 7.1.14 linux FC driver
-------------------------------------------

Installation:
------------
1. Ensure that DKMS is installed. DKMS version
2.0.4-1 or greater is required. You may install
the DKMS RPM that is included as part of this
package.

rpm -i dkms-2.0.4-1.noarch.rpm

rpm -i lpfcdkms-7.1.14-3.noarch.rpm

3. Install the dkms specific lpfcdfc driver rpm

rpm -i lpfcdfcdkms-1.0.13-2.noarch.rpm
Post-Install:
-----------
1. Use the DKMS status command to verify that DKMS has
built and installed the drivers.

e.g.
[root]# dkms status
lpfc, 7.1.14, 2.4.21-15.ELsmp, i686: installed (original_module exists)
lpfcdfc, 1.0.13, 2.4.21-15.ELsmp, i686: installed (original_module exists)

2. DKMS automatically builds the lpfc driver into the initial ram disk so that
lpfc is loaded on boot. To load the driver either reboot or issue comamnds;

modprobe lpfc
modprobe lpfcdfc

Observations

Qualification: Microsoft currently does not offer an FCoE WHQL "Certified for Windows" logo program. When the Storport Miniport driver is used with a standard Fibre Channel HBA, the driver is qualified for the "Certified for Windows" logo program. When the Storport MiniPort driver is used with an FCoE CNA, the driver is considered "unclassified" by Microsoft. In both cases, the Storport Miniport drivers are digitally signed by Microsoft and will be recognized by both Windows Sever 2003 and Windows Server 2008.
Note For Windows Server 2003, SP2 and Hotfix Q957910 update to the Microsoft STORPort driver are required. The STORPort KB update must be applied before the Emulex STORPort Miniport driver can be installed.
For Windows Server 2008, SP2 and Hotfix Q968675 update to the Microsoft STORPort driver are required. The STORPort KB update must be applied before the Emulex STORPort Miniport driver can be installed.
For Windows Server 2008 R2, no Hotfix is required
New features, fixed issues and known issues in the driver

New Features in Version 2.20.006
1. Added ExtTransferSize parameter. This parameter improves performance on tape devices supporting a larger block size.
2. Added support for Windows Server 2008 R2. This version of the driver kit adds support for Windows Server 2008 R2.
Resolved Issues in Version 2.20.006
1. There was the potential for the driver and the HBA to not synchronize properly, after the HBA was in warm start mode. Polling was modified in the HBAnyware utility.
2. The internal and external loopback diagnostic tests were not available for LP21000 and LP21002 adapters.
Known Issues in Version 2.20.006
1. The HBAnyware GUI is not available on the IA64 architecture. If you are installing on an IA64 system use the HBACMD command line utility, which is available in the Storport Miniport driver and core (CLI) application kit, instead of the Storport Miniport driver and HBAnyware kit.
Workaround: There is no workaround at this time.
2. Do not perform software-first installations on Windows Server 2008 or Vista systems. The procedure documented in the driver user manual might not have the expected effect. No error will be reported, but Windows might continue using the version of the driver distributed with the operating system rather than the new driver when an adapter is installed. The problem occurs because Microsoft-distributed drivers are versioned differently than Emulex- distributed drivers.
Workaround: There is no workaround at this time.
3. To revert to an older driver after a newer driver has been installed, you must uninstall all Emulex software and drivers before installing the older driver kit. Failure to do so could leave your system in an unsupported state. See the driver user manual for all the procedures you must follow.
Workaround: There is no workaround at this time.
4. Due to an issue with HBAnyware version 4.1, the default global driver parameters for converged network adapters (CNAs) cannot be changed.
Workaround: There is no workaround at this time.

Known Issues in Driver for Linux 8.2.8.14
There are no resolved issues in this driver version.
1. PCI Hot Plug may cause applications to malfunction Performing a PCI Hot Plug may cause the HBAnyware utilities or third party applications that use the Emulex libraries (i.e. HBAAPI) to behave unpredictably or malfunction. Workaround: 1. Stop all applications that are accessing LPFC's HBAAPI interface (HBAnyware utilities or third party applications) before performing PCI Hot Plug of an LPFC HBA. Use the following command to stop the HBAnyware application: #/usr/sbin/hbanyware/stop_hbanyware 2. Perform the PCI Hot Plug of the HBA. 3. Restart the application.

NIC version 2.101.374.0
iSCSI version 2.101.374.0

New Features in the Driver for Linux
1. Supports the OCe1010x OneConnect Universal Converged Network Adapters (CNAs).
2. Supports the OneCommand Manager application version 5.0. Refer to the OneCommand Manager
application User Manual for more information.
3. Adds PCI ID support for the LPSe12002-ML1-E EmulexSecure Fibre Channel Adapter.
4. Adds support for Advanced Error Reporting (AER) for PCIe HBAs.
Resolved Issues in the Driver for Linux
1. Multipath Package Issues Fixed
Corrected issues with the multipath package functions with the OneConnect UCNA.
2. FCF Failures Addressed
Resolved various FCF failures.
3. Corrected Adapter Reset
Corrected adapter reset and offline/online stress test failing with I/O errors.
4. Multiple Spurious Interrupts Corrected
Required OneConnect UCNA to set up and use single FCP EQ only under INTx interrupt mode. Changed
lpfc_use_msi module parameter to use INTx mode (not MSI) by default. This prevents multiple spurious
interrupts from the firmware.
5. Extended Error Handling Issue Resolved
Blocked all SCSI I/O requests from the midlayer until target rediscovery during Extended Error Handling
EEH.
6. VPort Log Out Issue Corrected
Corrected an issue that prevented a VPort to log out if deleted.
7. mbox sysfs Attribute Corrected
Corrected an issue that resulted in the mbox sysfs attribute smaller than the mailbox extension size.
8. LUN Panic Fixed
Fixed a potential panic if LUNs were unmapped.
9. CPU Lockup Fixed
Resolved an issue that caused the CPU to lock up or hang during boot when authentication is
enabled (fcauthd process is started).
10. Hot Plug Issue Resolved
Fixed a potential system panic issue during PCI Hot Plug.
11. List Corruption Fixed
Corrected an issue that caused a list corruption while unloading the driver.
12. Fabric Login Issue Fixed
Resolved an issue that caused the frame to be zeroed on the wire after a fabric login FLOGI .
13. Advanced Error Reporting Issue Resolved
Added logic to stop and abort all I/Os on an HBA for an advanced error reporting (AER) uncorrectable
non-fatal error handling.
14. AER sysfs entry Point Changed
Made the AER sysfs entry point return "Operation not permitted" for OneConnect UCNAs.
15. Unsolicited CT Exchange Sequences Fixed
Fixed handling of unsolicited CT exchange sequences.
16. Clear Virtual Link Support Added
Added support for Clear Virtual Link command.
17. devloss Timeout Issue Fixed
Corrected a devloss timeout issue when multiple initiators were in the same zone.

Observations

Qualification: Microsoft currently does not offer an FCoE WHQL "Certified for Windows" logo program. When the Storport Miniport driver is used with a standard Fibre Channel HBA, the driver is qualified for the "Certified for Windows" logo program. When the Storport MiniPort driver is used with an FCoE CNA, the driver is considered "unclassified" by Microsoft. In both cases, the Storport Miniport drivers are digitally signed by Microsoft and will be recognized by both Windows Sever 2003 and Windows Server 2008.
Note Windows Server 2003 SP2 and the KB943545 update to the Microsoft Storport driver are required. The KB943545 update must be applied before the Emulex Storport Miniport driver can be installed.

Observations

EMC qualifies operation of the hardware, drivers, firmware and Boot Bios for the products referenced, as documented in the current EMC ESM (EMC Support Matrix). Utility software, including HBAnyware and various stand alone utilities used to manage or maintain Emulex products, are not tested by EMC. Utility software is provided for the convenience of EMC customers. Emulex is responsible for the integrity, functionality and support.
WARNING: You are about to download the EMC Approved HBA driver. This driver is optimized for use with EMC "-E" HBAs. It is being made available to you to update your approved EMC HBAs to support your EMC and non-EMC hardware environments. Downloading this EMC approved driver for use with an unqualified or unsupported HBA may be inconsistent with applicable terms and conditions. If you have any questions about the suitability of downloading this driver, contact your Emulex or EMC sales team.

Observations

Qualification: Microsoft currently does not offer an FCoE WHQL "Certified for Windows" logo program. When the Storport Miniport driver is used with a standard Fibre Channel HBA, the driver is qualified for the "Certified for Windows" logo program. When the Storport MiniPort driver is used with an FCoE CNA, the driver is considered "unclassified" by Microsoft. In both cases, the Storport Miniport drivers are digitally signed by Microsoft and will be recognized by both Windows Sever 2003 and Windows Server 2008.
Note Windows Server 2003 SP2 and the KB943545 update to the Microsoft Storport driver are required. The KB943545 update must be applied before the Emulex Storport Miniport driver can be installed.

FCA Utilities Kit for Systems NOT Running EMC's PowerPath Application

Operating System

Solaris 10 SPARC

Version

2.40s SPARC

Size Driver

30.2MB

File Name

solaris-4.1a37-1.03h-1a.tar

Observations

The Solaris 10 FCA Utilities kit below is intended for use with systems NOT running EMC's PowerPath application. It contains support for Emulex NPIV Virtual HBA Architecture, and NPIV can not coexist with PowerPath on Solaris based systems. Also Note: Part of the utility package includes an emlxu_remove script. If you run this script, it will invoke a Sun utility that asks "do you want to continue". Since emlxu_remove can not communicate with the Sun owned utility, a "no" answer is ignored.
HBAnyware version 4.1a37, emlxadm version 1.03h and emlxdrv version 1.00m for SPARC

HBAnyware 4.1a37 Solaris Installation Instructions

Dependencies:

SUNWemlxs driver 2.40 or later (provided by Sun)
EMLXemlxu utility package 1.03h or later (included with the applications kit)

Java Runtime Environment

Version 1.5 or later of the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) must be installed. HBAnyware will not run
under earlier versions.

The JRE and instructions for installation can be found at http://java.com.

JAVA NOTE:
HBAnyware needs the java runtime binaries and libraries, so their path needs to be added to the beginning of
the PATH environment variable. For example, if your java runtime binaries are in /usr/java/bin, then include
this path in your PATH environment variable. (bash> export PATH="/usr/java/bin:$PATH")

The HBAnyware, HBAnywareSSC and HbaCmd target OS versions are Solaris 5.10 and 5.11.

HBAnyware is dependent on the SUNWemlxs driver package and the EMLXemlxu utilities package being installed.
Please ensure that these packages are installed before installing HBAnyware.
HBAnyware Installation Instructions
-----------------------------------
1. Run the pkgrm routine to remove any previous version of HBAnyware: pkgrm HBAnyware
2. Unzip the file: gunzip HBAnyware-4.1a37-i386.tar.gz
3. Untar the file: tar -xvf HBAnyware-4.1a37-i386.tar
4. Run the pkgadd utility: pkgadd -d .
5. When prompted by pkgadd, choose to install HBAnyware
6. When prompted by pkgadd, answer the HBAnyware installation option questions
Running the HBAnyware GUI
-------------------------
1. su to root
2. Run the script /opt/HBAnyware/hbanyware
