Hardware and Software Installation Procedure Step 1: Access the system card bay Hardware and Software Installation Procedure This document is for software version 2.0.15.0. These instructions apply to AD144A Windows/Linux 133MHz PCI-X cards. The driver may be downloaded from the web at http://www.hp.com/support/itaniumservers. If your 10GigE card is factory installed (ordered on product option 0D1), you do not need to perform the hardware and software installation steps.
Hardware and Software Installation Procedure Step 3: Connect the card to the network If you are using Jumbo Ethernet frames, ensure that: — all end stations on a given LAN have the same maximum transmission unit (MTU) setting; — intermediate stations such as switch ports in your LAN have an MTU equal to or greater than the end station’s MTU. • Ensure power cable is connected to system. Power up the system. NOTE 4 To obtain updates to driver xena64.sys (version 2.0.15.
Hardware and Software Installation Procedure Installation with Windows Server 2003, 64-bit Installation with Windows Server 2003, 64-bit HP Itanium servers automatically detect and configure PCI-compliant adapters when restarting. The adapter IRQ level is automatically set by the EFI each time the server is restarted. If configuration problems are encountered, see the HP Support site http://support.hp.com/.
Hardware and Software Installation Procedure Installation with Windows Server 2003, 64-bit • Select Install the software automatically (Recommended). • Click Next to continue. • Click Finish to close the Hardware Update Wizard. • The driver has now been updated and the device properties page displays the new driver version. Troubleshooting Network Interface Cards During the startup of the Network Operating System, the Network Interface cards load the latest available driver.
Hardware and Software Installation Procedure Installation with Windows Server 2003, 64-bit • Type cmd in the Run dialog box to start the command prompt • At the prompt, type ipconfig. This command displays all the IP addresses, subnet masks and default gateways of the server. • The ping command is used to check network connectivity. Using one of the IP addresses from the output of the ipconfig command in the previous step, type ping (ip address).
