Using the AutoPilot Manager Utility | Emulex 110 instruction

1. Using the AutoPilot Manager Utility

The AutoPilot Manager utility, which is installed when you install the Emulex driver for Windows from the Emulex Installation CD, enables you to discover and check the status of local and remote Emulex HBAs, hosts, fabrics, storage targets and logical unit numbers (LUNs) contained in the Storage Area Network (SAN).

The AutoPilot Manager utility uses the SAN to perform management. Therefore, if a switch is zoned, it can detect NetWin 110 HBAs in the same zone.

Note: The AutoPilot Manager utility manages only NetWin 110 HBAs.

The AutoPilot Manager utility also enables you to:

•View an HBA’s attributes.

•Reset an HBA.

In Advanced Mode, it enables you to:

•Enable and disable an HBA’s BootBIOS.

•Update the firmware on an HBA.

•Edit an HBA’s target mapping.

•Edit an HBA’s persistent binding configurations.
