Manually installing the HBA driver – Advanced users

115

Miscellaneous Planning and Procedures

What to expect when moving from SCSI miniport/Full Port drivers to

STORPort drivers

In STORPort drivers, functions or settings that users may have set

may no longer be available or may be accessed differently than in the

past. These are now controlled by the OS. EMC has always provided

standard settings which were accessible via driver configuration

utilities. For STORPort drivers, EMC will require that the default

settings for STORPort drivers be used unless otherwise instructed.

Configuration utilities for STORPort that run under Windows

(SANSurfer as well as the Qlogic Ease of Use installation kit), will

allow access to settings for the driver that may be changed via the

utility if necessary.

Manual driver installation procedure for Windows 2000, 2003, or Windows 2008

hosts

To install the driver into a Windows 2000, 2003, or Windows 2008

host, follow these steps:

1. Boot the host with Windows 2000, 2003, or Windows 2008.

2. Right-click the My Computer icon and select Manage.

3. In the left pane of the Computer Management window (Server

Manager window on Windows 2008), click the Device Manager.

(On Windows 2008, the Device Manager is located under the

Diagnostics item.)

4. If Windows Plug-n-Play does not detect your HBA(s), it will be

listed as Unknown or as a Fibre Channel Controller under the

Other Devices icon in the right pane. If the Windows Plug and

Play service has detected your HBA, the HBA will already be

listed under SCSI and RAID Controllers. (On Windows 2008,

they will appear under Storage Controllers.) If your HBAs have

already been detected, follow the instructions under ““Updating

the HBA driver in a Windows 2000, 2003, or Windows 2008 hosts”

on page 117. Otherwise, double-click the first instance of

controller under Other Devices.

5. In the next window, click Update Driver, then Next.

6. Perform one of the following:

1 2 ... 112 113 114 115 116 117 118 119 120 121 122 ... 149 150
