lputilnt Installs, but HBAnyware Does Not.
When you run setupapps.exe, lputilnt installs
but HBAnyware does not. You have
attempted to manually install the utilities for
the driver before manually installing the driver
Perform the installation tasks in the following order:
1. Install the driver (see the Installation section of the Storport
User Manual).
2. Install the utilities (see the Installation section of the
Storport User Manual).

Situation Resolution
Cannot See Other HBAs or Hosts.
Although the HBAnyware utility is installed,
only local host bus adapters (HBAs) are
visible. The other HBAs and hosts in the
SAN cannot be seen.
The HBAnyware utility uses in-band data communication,
meaning that the management server running the HBAnyware
utility must have a physical Fibre Channel connection to the
SAN. All the HBAs in the SAN will be visible if:
• The other servers have a Fibre Channel connection to your
zone of the SAN. Check fabric zoning.
• Ensure that elxhbamgr processes are running on the remote
host: enter ps -ef | grep elxhbamgr).
• All other HBAs are running the HBAnyware utility and the
appropriate driver.
• The other HBAs are Emulex HBAs.
Note: The HBAnyware utility must be running on all remote
hosts that are to be discovered and managed. Remote
capabilities of the HBAnyware utility are subject to fabric
zoning configuration. Remote hosts to be discovered and
managed by the HBAnyware utility must be in the same
zone.
The HBAnyware Utility Appears on
Remote Servers in the SAN. To prevent the HBAnyware utility from appearing on remote
servers in the SAN, disable the elxhbamgr process:
1. Navigate to /usr/sbin/hbanyware.
2. Run ./stop_hbanyware to stop both the elxhbamgr
and elxdiscovery processes.
3. Run ./start_elxhbamgr and ./start_elxdiscovery to
restart both processes.
Disabling this service or process prevents the local servers from
being seen remotely.
Cannot access formerly accessible
servers via the Security Configurator or
the HBAnyware utility.

This is actually a symptom of two different problems.

• New Keys Were Generated While Servers Were Offline
• Security Removed While Servers Were Offline

See Table19 on page 129 for details regarding these

problems.
