HBA driver problem

I have a problem with an HBA card. The card appears Unclaimed once installed on the server. Which can not be the appropriate driver, and know that the card type installed.

That is all I see:

Class IH / W Path Driver S / W State H / W Type Description

================================================== ==========================

unknown -1 0/4/0/0 Unclaimed UNKNOWN PCI-X SerialBus (10772312)

unknown -1 0/4/0/1 Unclaimed UNKNOWN PCI-X SerialBus (10772312)

How can I do to recognize this card? ..

Thank you very much!

Re: HBA driver problem

Do you have physical access to the server?

Have a look at the slot.


IMHO it must be a LAN card (dual port).

Check "swlist" for installed drivers, so we can tell you what is missing.

Hope this helps!

Re: HBA driver problem

That PCI reference number corresponds to a qlogic 2xxx ASIC, so my best guess would be that this needs the fcd driver in the FibrChanl-01 software bundle available here:

Re: HBA driver problem

Hi guys,
The only thing is that it is an HBA, but not the model / brand
I do not have physical access to hardware.
These data are collected:

[geibck_root]/> swlist | grep Fibr
FibrChanl-00 B.11.11.09 PCI/HSC FibreChannel;Supptd HW=A6684A,A6685A,A5158A,A6795A
FibrChanl-01 B.11.11.03 PCI-X FibreChannel;Supptd HW=A6826A,A9782A,A9784A
[geibck_root]/> uname -a
HP-UX geibck B.11.11 U 9000/800 1840819631 licencia de usuarios ilimitados
[geibck_root]/> model
9000/800/A400-6X
[geibck_root]/> ioscan -fn | grep UNCLAIMED
unknown -1 0/4/0/0 UNCLAIMED UNKNOWN PCI-X SerialBus (10772312)
unknown -1 0/4/0/1 UNCLAIMED UNKNOWN PCI-X SerialBus (10772312)
[geibck_root]/>

I have to somehow rescanear for the driver to recognize the new card? ....

Re: HBA driver problem

Hi,

You should be knowing the model of the card to install the corresponding driver. There is no point in guessing the model.

Get someone onsite to physically access the server and find out the model. UNCLAIMED status by ioscan shows there no valid driver in kernel to identify the device. So find out the model and install the driver.
Best wishes,

Ganesh.

Re: HBA driver problem

Hi Torsten,

When I try to install asks me Depends:

Can you help me? ..

Thank you!

Re: HBA driver problem

This sounds like a broken download of the depot. Clear your cache and try again. Compare the file size and checksum.

Hope this helps!
