Configuration

Introduction

The HBAnyware utility is launched directly from your Web browser. The utility is client/server based and allows you to perform configuration, update and management tasks locally and remotely (inband - host systems on the same FC SAN or out-of-band - from IP addresses of remote machines). The HBAnyware Web Launch feature enables you to download and launch the HBAnyware user interface by specifying the URL of a server that is hosting the HBAnyware Web Launch software. You only need a standard web browser, or some other application capable of making HTTP requests.

Note: Only the HBAnyware Web Launch GUI is being exported to the requesting client. All HBA discovery and remote management operations are performed by resources running on the remote host that served up the GUI component. Therefore, the SAN "view" displayed by the GUI is not from the perspective of the client running the GUI, but rather from the perspective of the host from which this GUI was retrieved.

Use the HBAnyware utility to do any of the following:

•Discover local and remote hosts, HBAs, targets and LUNs

•Reset HBAs

•Set HBA driver parameters locally, simultaneously to multiple HBAs (using Batch Update) and globally

•Update firmware on a single HBA or multiple HBAs using Batch Update

•Update FC boot code (BootBIOS, OpenBoot or EFIBoot) on the local HBA or on remote HBAs

•Enable or disable the system BIOS

•Run diagnostic tests on HBAs

•Manage local, in-band remote and out-of-band remote HBAs

Note: Remote in-band capabilities of the HBAnyware utility are subject to fabric zoning configuration. Remote hosts you want to discover and manage using the HBAnyware utility must be in the same zone or discovered and managed out-of-band through an Ethernet connection.

• Locate HBAs using beaconing

•The Solaris SFS utility allows you to make changes to the driver initialization.

•The Emulex FCA utilities consist of the emlxadm utility and the emlxdrv utility:

•The emlxadm utility provides an interface to the FCIO interface provided by the Sun StorEdge SFS.

•The emlxdrv utility temporarily associates or binds the Emulex emlxs Solaris SFS driver and the Solaris lpfc driver to the various models of Emulex FC HBAs during migration from the Solaris lpfc driver to the Solaris SFS driver.
