Flowchart 3: Boot Test Procedures
The sections below provide additional detail on the procedures listed in Flowchart 3.
A. Is the system bootable over the Fibre Channel adapter? Only certain systems can boot over the
Fibre Channel adapter. If your system cannot do this, you must boot from a SCSI device.
B. Is the system firmware version adequate? Check the system firmware version on your system for the
minimum required date code for your adapter. If Yes, go to step D; if No, go to step C.
C. Update firmware. Update the firmware to the appropriate level.
D. Is the minimum required Fibre Channel adapter ROM firmware installed? This step applies to
Fibre Channel adapters installed in HP/9000 and HP Integrity systems. If the minimum ROM firmware
version (or a later version) is installed, go to 4 on Flowchart 2. If not, go to step E.
E. Is the minimum required EFI version for the Fibre Channel adapter installed? This step applies
to Fibre Channel adapters installed in HP Integrity systems only. If the minimum EFI version (or a later
version) is installed, go to 4 on Flowchart 2. If not, go to step G.
