I'm using Emulex adapters FCA-2354 and FCA-2384 in fabric mode, but the system doesn't allow me to use these devices (pgc0 or pgd0) to boot from.
Could somebody please advise me how to boot from the SAN?
Thanks,
Larry

Can you see the HBAs using the console 'show config' and 'show device' commands?

There is a wwwidmgr users guide(pdf)on the AlphaServer firmware CD.

Re: SAN boot on Alpha GS160 with Tru64 5.1B-2
Yes, I could see WWIDs through wwidmgr
- just couldn't figure out how to define the disk to the console. And at this point my system just hung after issuing "wwidmgr -show wwid" command, though I could do it before. Tried to power off/on using SCM, but still no results: can't return back to P0>> prompt

Re: SAN boot on Alpha GS160 with Tru64 5.1B-2
Reading wwidmgr.pdf helped a lot to understand how to boot from a particular wwid. I even created 2 units - wwid0 and wwid1. But, as I wrote in previous reply, I can't get the system back to console mode from SCM - the system hangs after issuing "quit" and doesn't return to P00>>> prompt. Not that I haven't done it before - everything worked fine up until this time.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Larry
