On UNIX systems, the tmp directory is used during the Path Connectivity host agent deployment process.
If your tmp directory does not have sufficient space for the installation, use your Volume Management
System (for example, Online JFS or Veritas) to extend the available disk space in the tmp directory. Failure
to ensure that the tmp directory can accommodate the space requirements in Table 4 may cause an
installation failure.
Verify HBA support for Path Connectivity
If you plan to use Path Connectivity, verify that your HBA(s) are supported.
The following table lists HBAs that HP has verified to work properly with Path Connectivity. Fibre Channel
connectivity to XP disk arrays using these HBAs is subject to disk array firmware compatibility. Please
consult your HP support representative for further questions.
For Path Connectivity to collect all necessary information about the HBA, you should install the HBA SNIA
library provided by the HBA driver vendor.
