Configuring Simple SAN Connection Manager for HP-UX and Emulex

HBAs

Simple SAN Connection Manager is compatible with the HP-UX operating system and Emulex HBAs when

configured as described in this section.

HP-UX configuration

Simple SAN Connection Manager can manage all of your supported HP-UX servers. The HP-UX operating

system provides native software drivers for the HP StorageWorks FC HBAs. For the application to properly

identify your server(s), you must manually enter the Fabric Device Management Interface (FDMI)

information when the application prompts for it. For more information, see

“Manually entering FDMI

information,”
