StorageTek Proprietary
1. stk.svadisk (V1.1.1.0 or higher)

Warning: At this time (04/26/04) there is a bug in HACMP 5.1 that will
corrupt/delete the ODM table entries for HACMP event node_up
and node_down if no cluster is currently defined before installing/
removing the stk.hacmp package. IY56470 fixes this problem. This
fix is being posted on StorageTek’s CRC site as well as on the
Cambex DPF failover driver CD. You must install this fix prior to
installing/removing the stk.hacmp package. If you do not do this,
the odm entries may be deleted and you will have to remove and
reinstall all of the HACMP software and patches. Install the fix by
running the following command in the directory where the fix file is
mounted/download to.
emgr -e iy56470.050404.epkg.Z
For an HACMP environment, you must install all three stk.* packages. For a
non-HACMP environment, you must install stk.svadisk and stk.renumber
packages.
Check for current installed versions by running the following commands.
lslpp -L stk.svadisk
lslpp -L stk.renumber
lslpp -L stk.hacmp
Install the appropriate set of packages as follows (remove old versions if
needed).
installp -aXd stk.svadisk all
installp -aXd stk.renumber all
installp -aXd stk.hacmp all
Verifying Cable Connections and Scanning for LUNs
1. When scanning for LUNs, there must not be any hosts that have the
volume/LUN varied on or mounted. Otherwise the LUN will not be able to
be accessed to read the physical volume identification (PVID) off of it.
When scanning for LUNs after running the rmdev command, make sure
that no other hosts have the volumes varied on.
2. If the HBA to fcs# pairing is known, reconnect your FC cables to the
correct HBAs.
3. If the HBA to fcs# pairing is not known, perform the following procedure.
• Connect the FC cable labeled fcs0/controller A to one of the HBAs
