Emulex HBA configuration

Simple SAN Connection Manager can manage all of your supported Windows and Linux servers that

have Emulex HBAs installed. In order for the application to properly identify your server(s), you must set the

EnableFDMI

parameter on the Emulex HBA. Use the HBAnyware software to set the

EnableFDMI

parameter to a value of 2.
For detailed instructions on how to enable the FDMI parameter on your Emulex HBA, see your HBA

documentation.
If FDMI is not enabled on the HBA, Simple SAN Connection Manager will prompt you to manually enter

the FDMI information. For details, see

“Manually entering FDMI information”

on page 81.

Installing Simple SAN Connection Manager: upgrade installation

Use the HP StorageWorks Simple SAN Connection Manager CD to upgrade a previous installation of the

management software on your management station as described in

“Windows installation: upgrade,”

page 21. Then use the same CD to upgrade the HBA driver and other required software on each of the

other servers in your SAN. Depending on the server operating system for the non-management station

installations, refer to either the steps for

“Windows installation: upgrade”

on page 21 or

“Linux installation:

upgrade”

on page 24.

Windows installation: upgrade

Follow these steps to upgrade a previous installation of the Simple SAN Connection Manager software on

your management station, or to upgrade the required non-management software on all other servers

running Windows.
To upgrade Simple SAN Connection Manager on Windows:

1.

Insert the installation CD into your computer’s CD-ROM drive.
The HP Installation Wizard starts automatically. (If the installer does not start automatically, run

Setup.exe

from the installation CD.)
