qlc or fp drivers? solaris10
hello
I have V240 , solaris10, QLA2342(HBA), connected to AMS500(HDS storage).
1. why I cannot see the Luns on PROM?
2. how I descover luns on the PROM?

in the /kernel/drv/scsi_vhci.conf, the mpxIO disabled. and I put this :

symmetric-option = 0x1000000;

Why I cannod download the FCode into the HBA QLA2342?
I must download the FCODE qlc23xxFcode1.16 in order to see the Luns from the PROM.
why?
NOTE : solaris10(11/06), server type V240.

I fix the problem -
I download the Fcode version 1.16(found on the Qlogic website) by using the SANSurferCLI.
scli -> Update Flash -> reboot(init 6)
Then I suceeded to see the luns on PROM, by using probe-scsi-all, show-devs, show-disks.
the device path changed after the Fcode downloaded
from -> /pci@1d,700000/fibre-channel@1/fp@0,0
to-> /pci@1d,700000/QLGC,qlc@1/fp@0,0
So I suceed to do also boot from SAN, by creating new lun on this solaris, and by using Live Upgrade to lucreate the current rootdisk(and the swap) to the LUN root disk.
Then luactivate <Lun_root_file_system_lu>
init 6
Then the system is UP without local disks !!!!
:-)
thanks
