Deconfiguring a HyperFabric Adapter with SMH
To use SMH to deconfigure a HyperFabric adapter on an HP 9000 system running
HP-UX 11i v3, follow these steps:
Step 1. Start SMH.
Step 2. Select the “Networking and Communications” area.
Step 3. Select the “Network Interfaces” option.
Step 4. Select “HyperFabric.”
All HyperFabric adapters installed in the system are listed. Installed adapters that are
configured show Configured in the “Status” field, and installed adapters that are not yet
configured show Not Configured in the “Status” field. You can deconfigure only an adapter
with a status of Configured.
Step 5. Highlight the adapter you want to deconfigure.
Step 6. Pull down the “Actions” menu and select Deconfigure Adapter.
Step 7. In the pop-up window, if you want to deconfigure the adapter, select OK to confirm it.
If you do not want to deconfigure the adapter, select Cancel.
Step 8. If you selected OK, the entry for the adapter is deleted from the HyperFabric
configuration files (/etc/rc.config.d/clic_global_conf and /etc/rc.config.d/netconf).
If you selected Cancel, you remain in the main “HyperFabric Configuration” screen.
Step 9. Exit SMH.
NOTE If you have configured HMP for Transparent Local Failover support and if you select
Deconfigure Adapter, HyperFabric will verify if the selected adapter is configured to be
part of any card pair. If yes, the user is informed and the card pair entry is removed from
the /etc/rc.config.d/netconf and /etc/rc.config.d/clic_global_conf files.
