Installation guide

EMC Host Connectivity with QLogic Fibre Channel and iSCSI (HBAs) and (CNAs) for the Linux Environment

Configuring a Boot Device on an EMC Storage Array

• If there are multiple QLogic adapters, a list of addresses

occupied by those adapters appears. Since the EMC storage

array is attached to the lowest-numbered PCI slot, select the

first adapter from the list; then press Enter. The Fast!UTIL

Options menu appears.

4. From the Fast!UTIL Options menu, select Configuration

Settings and press Enter.

5. From the Configuration Settings menu, select Adapter Settings

and press Enter.

6. From the Host Adapter Settings menu, select Host Adapter

BIOS and press Enter to enable it if it is not already enabled.

Note: Refer to Table 3 on page 32 for recommended settings.

7. Press ESC to exit the Configuration Settings menu.

8. From the Configuration Settings menu, select Selectable Boot

Settings and press Enter.

9. From the Selectable Boot Settings menu, select Selectable Boot

Device and press Enter to enable this option if it is not already

enabled.

10. Select Current Boot Node Name and press Enter.

The adapter will scan for attached storage devices which will be

displayed on the screen.

Note: Depending upon the CLARiiON array model, the adapter may not

yet detect any LUNs or it may detect a LUNZ labeled device. This

behavior is acceptable and to be expected.

11. Skip from the BIOS configuration to a separate host that has

Navisphere Management software installed and is attached to the

CLARiiON storage array.

Since the operating system is not yet installed, the Naviagent/CLI

is not running on the Linux host. Therefore, the adapter may need

to be registered manually.

From the management host, manually register the host's adapter

and add the host to the newly created Storage Group using

Navisphere Management software.

12. Return to the BIOS configuration and reboot the host.
