HP StorageWorks Fabric Manager 5.x Administrator Guide (AA-RUQSF-TE, September 2005)

158 Firmware management
• Full Port Driver 5-2.22a8 (Windows 2000 and 2003), Firmware 3.92A2
• Solaris driver for Sparc systems version 6.00g, Firmware 3.92A2
NOTE: Note that lpfc.conf must have fdmi-on option set to 1 to turn on FDMI for the Solaris driver.
FDMI-capable HBAs must be connected to an FDMI-capable switch to get FDMI functionality.
FDMI is disabled by default on the Emulex HBA. You must enable FDMI by using either the elxcfg or
lputil tool.
CAUTION: If a host or switch connected to an HBA is rebooted during a firmware download to that
HBA, the firmware in the HBA flash can become corrupted. The HBA is unable to log back into the switch
or respond to a query from the switch. Neither Fabric Manager nor the switch can see the HBA and it
drops out of the Name Server list. If this occurs, use HBAnyware on the attached host and reload the
firmware on the HBA.
You must place the HBA firmware in the following directory if you want to use the built-in FTP server
provided with Fabric Manager:
<install_dir>/server/server/fmserver/ftproot/HBAs
To download firmware to one or more HBAs:
1. Log in to the switches with Fabric OS 3.1.0 (or later) or Fabric OS 4.1.0 (or later) already loaded and
FDMI-capable HBAs connected to the switches. See ”Logging in to multiple switches simultaneously” on
page 55 for additional information.
2. Select Tools > Firmware Management > Firmware download to HBAs.
The Firmware Download to HBAs window opens (see Figure 97).
3. In the Host IP address field, enter the IP address of the FTP server on which the firmware file resides.
The IP address is displayed if you have already configured file transfer options. If you have not
configured file transfer options, click the Save settings to options check box to save your FTP settings as
your file transfer options. See ”Configuring file transfer options” on page 153 for additional
information.
4. In the User Name field, enter your user ID for the FTP server.
5. In the Firmware file field, enter the path and name of the firmware file (in UNIX format) or click Browse
to navigate to the file.
Clicking Browse overrides the current settings for host IP address, user name, and password. The
information defaults to the current host system from which the Fabric Manager application is executed.
