Installing the Adapter Driver
To install the adapter driver:
IMPORTANT: If the host bus adapter drivers are being installed on a new system with a
Windows NT operating system, you need to make sure an older version of the driver is
installed on the system first to prevent an error with the upgrade utility. An older version of the
host bus adapter driver can be downloaded from
www.compaq.com/products/storageworks/adapters.html.
A new system with a Windows 2000 operating system does not require a previous driver
version.
1. Insert the storage subsystem CD-ROM from the HSG80 NT Intel platform kit in
the CD-ROM drive.
2. Select Solution Software for ACS.
3. Select KGPSA Driver Upgrade.
4. Follow the instructions on the screen.
5. Repeat steps 1 through 4 on the other servers.
6. Verify the HBA driver version installed on the server.
7. Go to
www.compaq.com/products/storageworks/adapters.html and check for the
latest Fibre Channel host bus adapter driver version supported.
IMPORTANT: Skip the following step if you have the latest Fibre Channel HBA driver
installed on the server.
8. Download the latest Fibre Channel HBA driver utility and install the utility on
each server, one server at a time.
