Verification: Verify that adapters recognize target devices by using operating
system device configuration utilities, or use the SANsurfer FC HBA Manager to
display target devices found on an adapter.
To mask devices or LUNs—or if devices appear twice because you plan to
configure them later as preferred and alternate paths—do not format devices,
assign drive letters, or save this disk configuration.
In Windows, use the computer management utility to view which target
devices are configured on which adapters, and to view and format devices
and LUNs that are found.
In NetWare, use the Scan all LUNs and List Storage Adapters
commands to view which target devices are configured on which adapters.
You can use the nwconfig or hdetect utility to view the devices and LUNs
found.
In Linux, open /var/log/messages to view which target devices are
configured on which adapters. Entries are also created for each adapter
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 adapters.
Step 4: Install any RAID Filter Drivers
Some RAID subsystems (including some CLARiiON
®
, EMC
®
, and LSI
subsystems) provide redundancy by using the subsystem to provide the same
LUNs through two separate controllers in the subsystem. These controllers
appear as unrelated target devices to adapters and miniport drivers. They are tied
together in the driver stack through a filter driver that understands the relationship
between these target devices and can move LUNs back and forth between
controllers.
To install and verify RAID filter drivers, see your RAID subsystem installation
documentation or associated software documentation.
If you do not have any such drivers to install, skip to Step 5: Install and Run
SANsurfer FC HBA Manager.
