D370 J3515A network card

[Paul Clayton]

Can some bright guru assist in telling this idiot where the drivers are for J3515A on HP-UX 11.11. I have hunted everywhere, but can't find them. The ioscan, does not pick the card up as unclaimed are as anything else. Anymore information please ask.

[Steven E. Protter]

The drivers installed with the OS.

Make sure its in a valid hsc slot and then run iocan -fnC lan or ioscan alone. You will see it claimed.

There is a diagram on the server case that will tell you which slots are valid.

Took your advice, and opened up the server. I was wrong. The unit is not J3515 card. IT looks like an eisa network card. The only thing I can see on it is A4308-66001

And at the back of the card 4824-TX-0100

You have an EISA 100-BaseT card; the software "EISA 100BaseT" is on Disk 1 of any "Applications" CD set. The bad news is that if you load 64-bit 11.11 on your D-box then you cannot use this card. No EISA cards are supported at 64-bit.

Hi Paul,

A4308A is EISA 100Base-T network adapter, and is not supported on HP-UX 11.11.

To clarify -- EISA cards ARE supported with 32-bit HP-UX 11.11.

EISA cards ARE NOT support with 64-bit HP-UX 11.11.

Your D370 can run either 32-bit or 64-bit HP-UX 11.11. Do a 'getconf KERNEL_BITS' to see what "bitness" you are running. If you are at 64-bit, then you are out of luck regarding this EISA card.

Guys and all. Thanx you are right. There was another thread around 1998/99 that asked the same question. Initially I thought the card was a J3515, until pulled it out and it was not. I installed a J3515, and it now works.
