EMC Fibre Channel with QLogic HBAs in the Windows Environment

Installing and Configuring the HBA Driver

10. Execute the following commands from a command window:

powermt restore
powermt display

At this point, two HBA’s should be present in the display and the
FC HBA’s should be duplexed in the ftSMC. It may be necessary
to repeat steps 9 and 10.

EMC Symmetrix

Arrays with Device

Masking Enabled

1

Use of this procedure requires SYMCLI installed on the host system.
Alternatively, EMC ControlCenter can be used to perform the HBA
replacement.

1. Using SYMCLI, run

symmask list logins

to view the old

WWN/iSCSI HBAs.

2. Remove all cables to the IO slice with the defective HBA, and

remove the IO slice.

3. Replace the defective QLogic HBA with the new HBA of same

Stratus part number (that is, U525 or U526). The HBA should be
inserted into same PCI slot from which the defective HBA was
removed. (Inserting the replacement HBA into another PCI slot
requires a driver to be loaded for the HBA)

4. Re-insert the IO slice with the new HBA, and re-connect all

cables.

5. Let the IO Slice come on-line and duplex, as shown in the Stratus

ftServer Management tool.

6. Change the FC switch zoning to add the WWN of the replaced

HBA to the appropriate zones.

7. Run

symmask list hba

or

discover

to view the new initiator

(for example, WWN).

8. Run

symmask replace

to substitute a new WWN for all

occurrences in the database of the old WWN.

9. Run

symmask discover

to establish the new names in the history

table, or run

symmask rename

to assign a WWN to the new HBA

in both the database and the history table.

1.

Symmetrix Arrays without device masking enabled do not require this procedure; Symmetrix Arrays
with device masking enabled only require replacing the HBA WWN used in switch zoning.
