Pre-Installation
If you are installing SAN Manager LM on a node that is running Solaris 7, read the QLogic HBA driver section below. Otherwise, skip to the HBA installation section on page 12.
On Solaris 7 Stations Only: Remove the QLogic HBA Driver
Solaris 7 is packaged with an OEM software package that includes a QLogic HBA driver. If the OEM software package is installed, you must remove the OEM QLogic driver before installing SAN Manager LM. If you connect a Solaris machine to the Fibre Channel network while running the OEM QLogic driver, all of the devices on the SAN will be added to /dev/rdsk and /dev/dsk. This can cause confusion, because when you run SAN Manager LM with its QLogic driver, only assigned devices are listed in /dev/rdsk and /dev/dsk.
Note To check for the OEM QLogic HBA driver, look for a file named ifp in the /kernel/drv directory.
Remove the OEM QLogic HBA Driver
1.Log in as superuser.
2.Enter rem_drv ifp to remove the QLogic driver.
3.Once the QLogic driver is removed, continue with the HBA installation procedure on page 12.
Note If you decide to remove this node from the SAN at a later time, enter the following command to restore the Solaris 7 QLogic driver:
add_drv
