Network Port Must Be Open
The CIM Extension uses port 4673 by default to communicate with the management server. Verify
the network port is open. Refer to the documentation accompanying your Linux host for more
information. If you need to use a different port, see ”Permanently Changing the Port a CIM
Extension Uses (UNIX Only)” on page 308.
Verifying SNIA HBA API Support
The management server can only talk to host bus adapters (HBAs) that support the SNIA HBA API.
You can run the hbatest program, which is accessible from the CIM Extension CD-ROM. The
program, hbatest, lists the name and number for all HBA's that support the SNIA HBA API.
To run hbatest:
1. Go to the linux/tools directory on the CIM Extension CD-ROM.
2. Enter the following at the command prompt: ./hbatest
The program runs its diagnostics.
