F.3 Enabling a Microsoft Windows Server to Recognize New Devices and LUNs

Before beginning this procedure, make sure that you are using a supported FC host bus adapter (HBA) such as a QLogic QLA2310 or QLogic QLA2342. Refer to the SANnet

II200 FC, SATA, and SATA SE Array Release Notes for current information about which HBAs are supported.

Also make sure that you are using a supported driver for your HBA. For the QLA2310 or QLA2342, use driver version 8.1.5.13 or later.

Note – When the Microsoft Windows operating system recognizes the array’s SCSI Enclosure Services (SES) processor and identifies it as a FC or SATA Enclosure, it might prompt you to supply a driver. This is standard plug-and-play behavior when unknown devices are encountered, but no device driver is necessary. If you see this prompt, simply click Cancel. If you have multiple arrays, you might see this prompt more than once. Each time you see this prompt, click Cancel.

1.Boot your system and verify that the HBA basic input/output system (BIOS) recognizes your new FC device.

Note – While your system is starting up, you should see your new Fibre Channel devices.

2.If a Found New Hardware Wizard is displayed, click Cancel. You are now ready to partition and format your new devices.

3.Open the Disk Management folder.
