1. Install the CNA card in the server like any other PCIe card - see the server vendor documentation
for specific instructions.
2. Install the CNA card driver following the CNA card installation instructions (it assumes the
server is already running a supported operating system).
3. Physically connect the server CNA card ports to the FCoE fabric.
4. Configure the HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage ports according to the guidelines in “Configuring
the HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage for FCoE” (page 32) and connect the HP 3PAR StoreServ
Storage ports to the FCoE fabric.
5. Create VLANs for the host initiator’s ports and the HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage target port.
Once the initiators have logged in to the HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage target ports, create a
host definition and provision storage to the host.
NOTE: FCoE switch VLANs and routing setup and configuration are beyond the scope of this
document. See your switch manufacturer's documentation for instructions of how to set up VLANs
and routing
