2. For more detailed information on the installed A7173A adapters, including verification of devices that have been connected to the A7173A adapter(s), use the mptconfig command for each channel of each A7173A adapter. Use the device files displayed in the ioscan -fnkd mpt output. For example: # mptconfig /dev/mpt8 Scan For Devices ...
2 Linux Installation Installation Overview To install the A7173A adapter in a supported HP Integrity system running Linux, follow these steps: 1. Check the Linux Support Notes for known problems or issues having to do with this card. These documents are available at: http://docs.hp.com/linux 2. To confirm that the A7173A adapter is supported in your specific Linux-Integrity configuration, review the HP Ultra320 SCSI Host Bus Adapter Support Matrix: http://docs.hp.com/en/netcom.
3 Windows Installation Installation Overview To install the A7173A adapter in a supported HP Integrity system running Windows, follow these steps: 1. To confirm that the A7173A adapter is supported in your specific Windows Integrity configuration, review the HP Ultra320 SCSI Host Bus Adapter Support Matrix: http://docs.hp.com/en/netcom.html#SCSI%20Host%20Bus%20Adapters 2. 3. 4. 5. Make sure you have the necessary parts and tools.
8. Click OK to begin the firmware download. Configuring the A7173A adapter using EBSU HP Integrity servers automatically detect PCI-compliant adapters when restarting. The adapter IRQ level and I/O address are automatically set by the Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI) each time the server restarts. The configuration tools you must use are invoked from EFI Based Setup Utility (EBSU). To start the EBSU and run these tools: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Insert the HP Smart Setup DVD in the DVD-ROM drive.
With either method you can find the necessary files and drivers on the Smart Setup DVD that shipped with your server, or on the web at: http://www.hp.com/support/itaniumservers/ Method 1: Installing the Integrity Support Pack 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Insert the HP Smart Setup DVD in the DVD-ROM drive. Click Agree at the End User License Agreement screen. Click the Install Support Pack tab in the Smart Setup screen. Click the Install ISP link to continue.
4 OpenVMS Installation Installation Prerequisites 1. 2. 3. See the documentation for the system you plan to install the A7173A adapter in (http://docs.hp.com), for system specific instructions on installing host bus adapters (I/O cards) in the PCI slots. Make sure you have the necessary parts and tools. Make sure you have a grounding Electrostatic Discharge Kit (ESD), which is shipped with the A7173A adapter.
1. While OpenVMS is starting up, each A7173A adapter port and its current firmware version number will be announced by the following console messages: %PKC0, Copyright (c) 2001 LSI Logic, PKM V1.1.01 %PKC0, SCSI Chip is LSI53C1030, Operating mode is LVD Ultra320 SCSI %PKC0, LSI53C1030 firmware version is 1.3.35.65 Once system startup is complete, log into a privileged account such as SYSTEM and confirm that all of the A7173A adapter ports have been configured.

5 Hardware Installation and OS-Independent Procedures This chapter includes the following topics: System Firmware The firmware on HP 9000 systems is known as Processor Dependent Code (PDC). On HP Integrity® systems, the system firmware is based on the Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI) specifications. There is also an EFI driver component for the A7173A adapter firmware for Integrity® systems.
NOTE: The A7173A adapter can be installed in any PCI or PCI-X slot, but for best performance, HP recommends installing the adapter in a PCI-X, 133 MHz, 64 bit, 4x (“Twin Turbo” or “Dual Rope”) slot. For more information on slot specifications, see the system documentation; or, for entry-class servers, see the I/O Slot Matrix – Entry Class Integrity Servers, at: http://docs.hp.com/en/hw.html#General%20Guides After installing the A7173A adapter, go to “Connecting SCSI Peripheral Devices”.
