Verification: Verify that adapters recognize target devices by using operating system device configuration utilities, or use the SANsurfer FC HBA Manager to display target devices found on an adapter.
To mask devices or
In Windows, use the computer management utility to view which target devices are configured on which adapters, and to view and format devices and LUNs that are found.
In NetWare, use the Scan all LUNs and List Storage Adapters commands to view which target devices are configured on which adapters. You can use the nwconfig or hdetect utility to view the devices and LUNs found.
In Linux, open /var/log/messages to view which target devices are configured on which adapters. Entries are also created for each adapter recognized by the driver. Each entry contains information about target devices and LUNs that are found.
In Solaris, open /var/adm/messages to view which target devices are configured on which adapters.
Step 4: Install any RAID Filter Drivers
Some RAID subsystems (including some CLARiiON®, EMC®, and LSI subsystems) provide redundancy by using the subsystem to provide the same LUNs through two separate controllers in the subsystem. These controllers appear as unrelated target devices to adapters and miniport drivers. They are tied together in the driver stack through a filter driver that understands the relationship between these target devices and can move LUNs back and forth between controllers.
To install and verify RAID filter drivers, see your RAID subsystem installation documentation or associated software documentation.
If you do not have any such drivers to install, skip to Step 5: Install and Run SANsurfer FC HBA Manager.
