EMC Host Connecivity with Emulex Fibre Channel HBAs and CNAs in the Windows Environment
Troubleshooting
◆ For servers booting from the array, a Symmetrix out-of-family
microcode load, or a VNX series for block or CLARiiON FLARE
®
NDU between versions will cause the server to require a reboot.
This occurs because Windows requires a reboot when
characteristics of the boot LUN change. During the NDU process
on EMC storage arrays, the serial number and inquiry VPD data
will change to reflect the new code version. When Windows
performs a rescan and recognizes this change, it assumes a
change has occurred on the boot LUN and will require a reboot.
◆ STORPort 1.20a3 and HBAnyware 3.0 after the FC Port
installation or update.
Although not recommended, running multiple Emulex drivers on
the same server may be supported by your OEM vendor. The
Emulex adapter applications installed with a new driver will
supersede previously installed Emulex adapter applications. In
some cases, the local management utility (lputilnt or elxcfg) for a
previously installed driver will be removed and not superseded.
In this case, HBAnyware can be used to manage the previously
installed driver on the local server.
Installing or updating FC Port on a server with STORPort
Miniport 1.20a3 installed will cause management problems with
adapters that use STORPort Miniport. In this case, it will be
necessary to reinstall STORPort Miniport 1.20a3 and HBAnyware
3.0 after the FC Port installation or update.
