E3500 / A3500FC
in [Solaris]
|
From: Solaris Administrator on 1 Feb 2010 20:42 We have replaced HBA card on this E3500 connected to A3500FC (using hardware RAID ..utilizing 'rm6') as it is having an issue seeing the disk. (I already tried replacing fiber cable as well GBIC card but has not helped). We looked through the following files but not able to find WWPN number to change so we can enter the new number for the HBA card inserted - fcaw.conf, jni.conf, sd.conf fcaw.conf and jni.conf file do not exist sd.conf do not have WWPN for (old) HBA. Does anyone know which file would have this WWPN ? We believe we will only see HBA card if we update the configuration file and do reconfigure reboot. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you so much!

Depending on exactly how you've got things configured, you *might* have to have the WWN of the array in one of those files, but there's no reason to have the WWN of the local HBA in it. Have you replaced the FC card with the identical model? If not, you might need to reconfigure your fiber drivers. -- Darren

I do not see path to the disk with new HBA card so it seems like there is the file I need to update but unable to find. Any other thoughts ? Thank you

On Solaris10, try "/usr/sbin/fcinfo hba-port" You can also try "luxadm -e port" to list HBA devices, then "luxadm -e dump_map <device>" for details
