CHAPTER 1 HBA Overview This chapter provides a basic overview of the single and dual port Sun StorageTek™ 8 Gb Fibre Channel (FC) PCI-Express host bus adapter (HBA), Emulex (referred to as Sun StorageTek 8 Gb FC PCI-Express HBA in this document), which uses Emulex technology. This chapter also describes the various operating systems, host platforms, storage, and infrastructure configurations that support the HBA and lists the HBA environmental requirements.
HBA Features and Specifications The Sun StorageTek 8 Gb FC PCI-Express HBA, Emulex (single port: SG-XPCIE1FCEM8-Z, dual port: SG-XPCIE2FC-EM8-Z) consists of a single-wide, FC bus expansion board. The board interfaces a four- or eight-lane PCI-Express bus, with the four or eight lanes supporting one or two Fibre Channel (FC) optical media ports. Each independent FC port operates at 8 Gbit/sec and features 8/4/2 autonegotiation. See TABLE 1-1 for a list of the HBA features.

CHAPTER 2 Hardware Installation and Removal This chapter describes the tasks required to install and remove the HBA. Refer to your system installation or service manual for detailed instructions.
■ Hold the HBA by the edge of the PCB, not by the connectors. ■ Place the HBA on a properly grounded antistatic work surface pad when it is out of its protective antistatic bag.
a. Remove the transceiver from its cage assembly (see FIGURE 2-2) by pulling the bail (handle) out and down to release the latch and gently pull the transceiver out of its housing. Do not force it. After the latch is released, the transceiver slides out easily.. Caution – This is a delicate operation–take care not to damage the transceiver.
b. Observing ESD precautions, store the transceiver in an ESD-safe place. c. Remove the mounting bracket screws from the top of the HBA. FIGURE 2-3 Removing the Bracket Mounting Screws d. Remove the bracket and store it for future use. e. Align the new mounting bracket tabs with the holes in the HBA. Caution – Be careful not to push the bracket past the transceiver housing's grounding tabs. Make sure the LEDs are properly aligned with the holes in the bracket. f.
9. Replace the computer case and tighten the case screws. The HBA is now installed in the computer and is ready for media attachment. ▼ To Connect the Optical Cable Note – The HBA does not allow normal data transmission on an optical link unless it is connected to another similar or compatible Fibre Channel product (that is, multimode to multimode). Use multimode fiber-optic cable, intended for short-wave lasers, that adheres to the specifications in TABLE 2-1.
FIGURE 2-4 Attaching the Optical Cable 2. Connect the other end of the cable to the FC device. After the optical cable is connected to the HBA, you can power on the system. ▼ To Apply Power 1. Verify that the HBA is securely installed in the system. 2. Verify that the correct fiber-optic cable is attached. 3. Refer to your system installation or service manual to determine how to power on the system. ▼ (LED) Status Yellow and green LEDs can be seen through openings in the mounting bracket of the HBA.

Replacing the SFP+ Unit on the HBA The Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP+) optics unit on this card is considered a part of the card, NOT as a separate field replaceable unit (FRU). Therefore, in the event that the SFP+ unit malfunctions, you must return the entire card in order to receive a replacement SFP+ unit. Always return any malfunctioning card with the SFP+ unit attached. For information about removing the card from a system in order to return it, see “To Remove the HBA Hardware” on page 24.

Locate the VMware section, and click the model number (SG-XPCIE1FC-EM8Z) for the HBA you want to install.
▼ To Install the Software For the Windows Server 2003 or Windows Server 2008 OS 1. Go to the Emulex support site for Sun Microsystems at: http://www.emulex.com/sun/support/index.jsp 2. Locate the driver section for Windows. 3. Download the Driver Kit by clicking Download. 4. Click PDF Manual to download the installation guide for the Windows OS. 5. Install the driver and management utilities for the Windows OS as described in the installation guide.
CHAPTER 4 Known Issues This chapter contains any known issues with the HBA. Reboot Fails on the SPARC Enterprise M8000 System (6728135) On the SPARC Enterprise M8000 system, if you use the stmsboot command to provide dual paths to the boot device, on occasion the boot device is not found and the reboot does not succeed. At the console, the following message will be printed: Can't open boot device Workaround: When this occurs, retry the boot operation. The system will now reboot as expected.
