Format of the /etc/hpcfs/fc_pcitable File
In HP Clustered File System 3.0 and later, the /etc/hpcfs/fc_pcitable file
contains entries only for the drivers installed on your system. In earlier
releases, the file contains entries for all of the default drivers provided
with HP Clustered File System.
By default, the entries in the file are commented out, as indicated by the
comment character (#). The file is used only if you add a new entry to the
file or modify a default entry (by removing the comment character and
then changing the appropriate values).
Each line in the file contains six fields, as shown in the following example
for the default qla2x00 driver:
0x1077 0x2200 qla2x00 scsi "" QLogic 2200 Adapter
The fields contain the following information:
•Vendor ID.
• Device ID.
• Driver name. Do not include .o in the name.
