Install the Host Bus Adapters and Drivers
To run Data Replication Manager, you should have two host bus adapters installed in each
host system. If you are using Windows NT, you will need to change the default Topology
value from loop to switch. Follow the procedures outlined in the next section. Refer to the
KGPSA-BC PCI-to-Optical Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter User’s Guide for installation
information.
1. Access REGEDT32. Select START>>RUN, and type REGEDT32.
2. Find DriverSetting with the following sequence:
• HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
• System
• CurrentControlSet
• Services
• Lp6nds35
• Parameters
• Device
• DriverParameters
3. Using the String Editor, make sure the value of Topology in the string is equal to 1.
This will tell the driver to operate in a Fibre Channel switched environment.
4. Exit the Registry Editor.
