Chapter 2 9 2 Installing the A6829A Adapter This chapter contains the following sections that describe how to install the A6829A adapter: • “Overview of Installation Steps” on page 11.
Installing the A6829A Adapter Chapter 2 10 • “P erformance Tuning” on page 13. • “Preparing for Installation” on page 14. • “Installing the A6829A Adapter” on page 15. • “Connecting External SCSI P eripherals” on page 21. • “Specifying SCSI P arameters” on page 23.
Installing the A6829A Adapter Overview of Installation Steps Chapter 2 11 Overview of Installation Steps Here is a high-level view of the steps for installing the A6829A HBA: Step 1. Review the recommendations for performance (see “Performance Tuning” on page 13).
Installing the A6829A Adapter Overview of Installation Steps Chapter 2 12 Step 9. V erify the installation (see “V erifying Installation” on page 58).
Installing the A6829A Adapter P erformance T uning Chapter 2 13 P erformance Tuning T o get the best performance from the A6829A adapter , we recommend the following things: • Increase the number specified for the scsi_max_qdepth kernel tunable parameter: — HP-UX 11.
Installing the A6829A Adapter Preparing for Installation Chapter 2 14 Preparing for Installation Installing the A6829A adapter requires disassembly of some system components . Before beginning the installation, see the HP-UX system’s manual for detailed instructions about installing host bus adapters in the PCI slots.
Installing the A6829A Adapter Installing the A6829A Adapter Chapter 2 15 Installing the A6829A Adapter This section contains information about installing the A6829A HBA in an HP-UX system (including Online Addition and Replacement [OLAR]).
Installing the A6829A Adapter Installing the A6829A Adapter Chapter 2 16 NO TE As stated earlier , although the A6829A is supported on only 64-bit HP-UX 11.0 and 11i, you can install the adapter in either a 32-bit or 64-bit PCI slot. Also, we recommend using a PCI4X slot, to get maximum performance.
Installing the A6829A Adapter Installing the A6829A Adapter Chapter 2 17 HP recommends that you use SAM instead of the rad command to perform OLAR procedures. This is because for the most part, SAM prevents you from performing OLAR procedures that would adversely affect other areas of the system.
Installing the A6829A Adapter Installing the A6829A Adapter Chapter 2 18 During an adapter replacement operation, SAM performs a Critical Resource Analysis ( CRA ), which checks all c hannels on the target adapter for critical resources that will be temporarily unavailable while the adapter is shut down.
Installing the A6829A Adapter Installing the A6829A Adapter Chapter 2 19 Adapter Compatibility This section explains adapter compatibility considerations for performing OLA and OLR. Online Addition (OLA) Y ou can add multiple adapters at the same time.
Installing the A6829A Adapter Installing the A6829A Adapter Chapter 2 20 The PCI specification allows a single physical adapter to contain more than one channel. A single channel SCSI adapter cannot be replaced by a dual channel adapter , even if the additional channel(s) on the adapter are identical to the original SCSI adapter .
Installing the A6829A Adapter Connecting External SCSI P eripherals Chapter 2 21 Connecting External SCSI P eripherals The A6829A adapter is capable of communicating with Low V oltage Differential (L VD) or Single Ended (SE) SCSI devices. L VD allows up to 12m cable lengths with multiple SCSI devices, or 25m point-to-point connections .
Installing the A6829A Adapter Connecting External SCSI P eripherals Chapter 2 22 Figure 2-1 below is a drawing (not to scale) of a typical SCSI shielded 68-pin L VD cable.
