Installed new 10/100Mbit ethernet card

[Mel Burslan]

if you can remember the product number that you installed, please go into swremove and remove that product. Come back to sam and see which one of the EISA drivers disappear if any. If nothing disappears, more than likely it did not go in at the first time, which I strongly doubt, as none of that you listed sounded like a LAN driver.

Hi!
I got no error messages anymore but still there is no new lan card output with lanscan command:
I catch this during boot up process:

"Successfully saved configuration in NVM and in /etc/eisa/system.sci.

One or more boards have been successfully added to the configuration.
Since none of the existing boards have been re-configured, there will be
no need to reboot the system. The drivers for the new boards will now be
initialized.

If the required drivers are not present in the kernel, they
must be added before the boards will be usable. Refer to the
"E/ISA Configuration Documentation".


eisa_config finished"

With "ioscan -f" i still get:
unknown -1 20/5/4 UNCLAIMED UNKNOWN EISA card HWP1990

PS: I ve changed network card with the same one (just to check if "old" one is broken) in PCI slot 4. eisa_config wants
!HWP1990.CFG.
Can anyone send me a link to !HWP1990.CFG ?

hi sergei,


just spotted one thing I didnt consider.

You have the older 100VG eisa lan card not the standard 100BT card.
(the card may have the part number J3577 on it)
You need the driver for this card which is A4302A on the Apps cd1.

install this and this will have the required CFG file needed for the Eisa config

once this is installed you should be able to run the
#eisa_config
utility to verify the card aswell.

Then you should be able to configure the card in SAM

Hi!
But i cannot find A4302A ... just A4308B (as u can see from previous posts)

And i ve installed A4308B ...
I got App CD's june 2004

HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLP :)

[Sergej_5]

I can see during boot up:
Configure HP Gigabit Ethernet interfaces ............................ OK
Configure HP Token Ring interfaces .................................. OK
Configure HP Ethernet interfaces .................................... OK
Configure HP EISA 100BT interfaces .................................. OK

But still got:
unknown -1 20/5/4 UNCLAIMED UNKNOWN EISA card HWP1990

sergei,

what version of hpux is that you are running?

it maybe that you have to buy a lic for the lancard which will give you a codeword. You had to do originally with 10.20

hi,

just had alook through my notes for those cards and you needed the lic J2694BA for that card and to install that software.

unfortunatly support finished for that card at hpux 11.0, hence no driver available

http://docs.hp.com/en/5187-1306/ch01s02.html

check this support matrix.

if you have an 11.0 cd the driver may work from this, but? dont know.

Hi Sergej

1. with ioscan command check the new network card is seen and CLAIMED

2. run lanscan to check the status of lan cards in system. New card may show DOWN at this point of time

3. use SAM>Network & communications> Netowrk cards to configure the new card with IP address and alias name

4. After you have finished, run lanscan to see that both lan cards are seen UP

Mahesh
