NOTE: The Emulex driver is shipped with the ESX server. This driver does not require installation. |
This section describes fixes and restrictions for Windows and HBAs. STORport miniport driver installation restrictions |
If you are upgrading to the STORport miniport driver, consider the following: ·The STORport miniport driver is supported only on Windows 2003 SP1 and later. ·The STORport QFE must be installed before installing Multipath software. ·On Windows Server 2003 systems, clients may be disconnected, generating Event ID 11 and Event ID 15 in the application log. This problem can occur under high-stress conditions due to a SCSIport miniport driver error. It can also cause network timeouts if remote computers are accessing data on drives that use the SCSIport driver on the Windows Server 2003 system. ·If you are running Secure Path for Windows, you must upgrade to Secure Path 4.0c SP2 or later for Windows. STORport is not supported with earlier versions of Secure Path. Driver installation with HP Smart Component requires a minimum of Windows Server 2003 SP2 or SP1 with update KB932755. Apply the Microsoft STORport update (KB932755) before installing or upgrading to this version of the STORport driver. For boot installations, Windows Server 2003 SP2 install image is required, followed by the KB update. Consider the following restrictions for HBAnyware: ·You must manually uninstall any previous versions of HBAnyware before installing the drivers. ·Before disabling or uninstalling an HBA using Device Manager, you must close HBAnyware. ·In the presence of a failed path, HBAnyware may remove LUNs from the tree display. The display is corrected when the failed path is restored. ·The installation of HBAnyware on IA64 is included in the driver smart component. There is no separate IA64 smart component for HBAnyware. ·To install HBAnyware for Windows XP: 1.Download hbanyware_30a16_winxp.zip from the HP-website: ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib/software8/COL6923/co-48775-1/hbanyware_30a16_winxp.zip 2.Unzip the zip file and run setupapps.exe. ·When upgrading the x86(W32) or x64 HBA STORport driver to 2.01a4, any existing HBAnyware installed on the server will uninstall during the driver installation. You must reinstall the latest version of HBAnyware to use the utility. ·HBAnyware version 4.1a35 for Integrity is limited to CLI (Command Line Interface) only. There is no HBAnyware GUI version. HP ProLiant DL380 (G4) servers must have Systems ROMPaq Firmware 4.05 P51-08/16/2005 or later to be compatible with the FC2142SR and FC2242SR. Failure to use this ROMPaq version can cause the HBAs to hang during the power-on self-test (POST). For detailed information, see the HP-website: http://h18006.www1.hp.com/products/storageworks/4gbpciehba/index.html The 2.20.006 STORport driver is not supported on Integrity servers running WS2003. Emulex 2Gb HBAs and mezzanine cards are not supported with WS2008 R2. The following Smart Component issues may be observed during driver installation: ·When using the Smart Component to install drivers, if the following message appears during reboot, ignore it and continue with the reboot procedure. No known issue has been observed in connection with the display of this message. The application failed to initialize because the windows station is shutting down.
·Downgrading a version 2.0 or greater STORport driver does not work when initiated via the Smart Component. To downgrade an HP-branded Emulex HBA, 1.Run the Smart Component, containing the desired driver, to extract the contents to a folder. 2.Run the STORport driver installer from the extracted folder using the default values. For example: storportminiportcorekit_2-01a4
This will uninstall the current driver before downgrading to the desired driver version. ·When using the Smart Component to install drivers, the following message may appear during reboot. There was a problem installing this hardware. This device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31)
Uninstall and then reinstall your device.
Should the above message appear, click Finish. Do not reply to Microsoft and continue with the reboot procedure. No known issue has been observed in connection with the display of this message. With Secure Path 4.0c SP1, during a rolling driver upgrade, a blue-screen error may occur under any of the following conditions: ·Secure Path is not supported on WS2008 or 8Gb HBAs and 8Gb mezzanine cards. ·The server boots from a SAN. ·All HBAs are accessing their LUNs in a single-path configuration. ·The HBA is directly attached in a single path to its own MSA controller. If the blue-screen error occurs, reboot the server and check the driver revisions to verify that the upgrade is complete on all HBAs. Upgrading to Secure Path 4.0c SP2 corrects this problem. On Windows Server 2003 systems, clients may be disconnected, generating Event ID 11 and Event ID 15 in the application log. This problem can occur under high-stress conditions due to a SCSIport miniport driver error. It can also cause network timeouts if remote computers are accessing data on drives that use the SCSIport driver on the Windows Server 2003 system. To correct this problem, install the latest Microsoft QFE from the website: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;895573 ·In a direct connect environment, Boot From SAN fails to boot after adding a second path to an EVA4000/6000/8000 running firmware 6.110. ·Boot from SAN on c-Class blade servers fail to boot on an Active/Passive MSA1000/1500 running firmware 5.20. ·In Boot from SAN configurations where there are more than two Emulex HBAs in the same zone as the boot HBA, a crash-dump may not be generated due to a time-out condition when the boot HBA interacts with the non-boot HBAs. A work-around is to reconfigure the zoning such that the boot instance (for each path) is in its own zone separate from the other non-boot HBAs. In some cases, this may also result in faster boot-up times. ·When installing to storage attached to the 403621-B21 LPe1105 mezzanine card in a VC environment through a Brocade switch, both the target LUN and the WWN for the boot controller will not be visible in the zone, in the switch administrative tool. The work-around is to take note of the mezzanine card’s WWN when installing it into the system, or get it from the VC manager or EFI utility. Then manually enter the WWN into the desired zone on the switch when configuring the zone. Scan for targets and continue with normal installation steps to boot from the mezzanine card. ·EFI boot path configuration will not detect multiple controller ports connected to one HBA thru McData fabric. ·In a BFS configuration, the installed HBAs may display different names when viewed through the device manager. This is a cosmetic condition, not a functional issue. ·The Emulex 81E and 82E HBAs (AJ762A and AJ763A) running the Universal Boot Image 5.03a0, does not support Boot from SAN on the DL160 G5 Proliant server. ·When the Load Driver option is selected during the operating system build of a Windows 2008 server in a Boot from SAN Configuration, a multiple entry of the Emulex driver will be displayed. If multiple types of HBAs are displayed, select the first entry, then proceed. ·TFTP type monitors cannot be used to install an operating system on Itanium servers. Instead, you must use a VGA type monitor. ·A direct connect environment is not supported with the EVA4400, EVA4000/6000/8000 storage array (i.e., there is no FC switch between the HBA and the storage array). HP recommends that you implement zoning with HBAs, as described in the HP StorageWorks SAN design reference guide, available at the website: http://h18006.www1.hp.com/products/storageworks/san/documentation.html.

NOTE: The Emulex driver is shipped with the ESX server. This driver does not require installation. |
This section describes fixes and restrictions for Windows and HBAs. STORport miniport driver installation restrictions |
If you are upgrading to the STORport miniport driver, consider the following: ·The STORport miniport driver is supported only on Windows 2003 SP1 and later. ·The STORport QFE must be installed before installing Multipath software. ·On Windows Server 2003 systems, clients may be disconnected, generating Event ID 11 and Event ID 15 in the application log. This problem can occur under high-stress conditions due to a SCSIport miniport driver error. It can also cause network timeouts if remote computers are accessing data on drives that use the SCSIport driver on the Windows Server 2003 system. ·If you are running Secure Path for Windows, you must upgrade to Secure Path 4.0c SP2 or later for Windows. STORport is not supported with earlier versions of Secure Path. Driver installation with HP Smart Component requires a minimum of Windows Server 2003 SP2 or SP1 with update KB932755. Apply the Microsoft STORport update (KB932755) before installing or upgrading to this version of the STORport driver. For boot installations, Windows Server 2003 SP2 install image is required, followed by the KB update. Consider the following restrictions for HBAnyware: ·You must manually uninstall any previous versions of HBAnyware before installing the drivers. ·Before disabling or uninstalling an HBA using Device Manager, you must close HBAnyware. ·In the presence of a failed path, HBAnyware may remove LUNs from the tree display. The display is corrected when the failed path is restored. ·The installation of HBAnyware on IA64 is included in the driver smart component. There is no separate IA64 smart component for HBAnyware. ·To install HBAnyware for Windows XP: 1.Download hbanyware_30a16_winxp.zip from the HP-website: ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib/software8/COL6923/co-48775-1/hbanyware_30a16_winxp.zip 2.Unzip the zip file and run setupapps.exe. ·When upgrading the x86(W32) or x64 HBA STORport driver to 2.01a4, any existing HBAnyware installed on the server will uninstall during the driver installation. You must reinstall the latest version of HBAnyware to use the utility. ·HBAnyware version 4.1a35 for Integrity is limited to CLI (Command Line Interface) only. There is no HBAnyware GUI version. HP ProLiant DL380 (G4) servers must have Systems ROMPaq Firmware 4.05 P51-08/16/2005 or later to be compatible with the FC2142SR and FC2242SR. Failure to use this ROMPaq version can cause the HBAs to hang during the power-on self-test (POST). For detailed information, see the HP-website: http://h18006.www1.hp.com/products/storageworks/4gbpciehba/index.html The 2.20.006 STORport driver is not supported on Integrity servers running WS2003. Emulex 2Gb HBAs and mezzanine cards are not supported with WS2008 R2. The following Smart Component issues may be observed during driver installation: ·When using the Smart Component to install drivers, if the following message appears during reboot, ignore it and continue with the reboot procedure. No known issue has been observed in connection with the display of this message. The application failed to initialize because the windows station is shutting down.
·Downgrading a version 2.0 or greater STORport driver does not work when initiated via the Smart Component. To downgrade an HP-branded Emulex HBA, 1.Run the Smart Component, containing the desired driver, to extract the contents to a folder. 2.Run the STORport driver installer from the extracted folder using the default values. For example: storportminiportcorekit_2-01a4
This will uninstall the current driver before downgrading to the desired driver version. ·When using the Smart Component to install drivers, the following message may appear during reboot. There was a problem installing this hardware. This device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31)
Uninstall and then reinstall your device.
Should the above message appear, click Finish. Do not reply to Microsoft and continue with the reboot procedure. No known issue has been observed in connection with the display of this message. With Secure Path 4.0c SP1, during a rolling driver upgrade, a blue-screen error may occur under any of the following conditions: ·Secure Path is not supported on WS2008 or 8Gb HBAs and 8Gb mezzanine cards. ·The server boots from a SAN. ·All HBAs are accessing their LUNs in a single-path configuration. ·The HBA is directly attached in a single path to its own MSA controller. If the blue-screen error occurs, reboot the server and check the driver revisions to verify that the upgrade is complete on all HBAs. Upgrading to Secure Path 4.0c SP2 corrects this problem. On Windows Server 2003 systems, clients may be disconnected, generating Event ID 11 and Event ID 15 in the application log. This problem can occur under high-stress conditions due to a SCSIport miniport driver error. It can also cause network timeouts if remote computers are accessing data on drives that use the SCSIport driver on the Windows Server 2003 system. To correct this problem, install the latest Microsoft QFE from the website: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;895573 ·In a direct connect environment, Boot From SAN fails to boot after adding a second path to an EVA4000/6000/8000 running firmware 6.110. ·Boot from SAN on c-Class blade servers fail to boot on an Active/Passive MSA1000/1500 running firmware 5.20. ·In Boot from SAN configurations where there are more than two Emulex HBAs in the same zone as the boot HBA, a crash-dump may not be generated due to a time-out condition when the boot HBA interacts with the non-boot HBAs. A work-around is to reconfigure the zoning such that the boot instance (for each path) is in its own zone separate from the other non-boot HBAs. In some cases, this may also result in faster boot-up times. ·When installing to storage attached to the 403621-B21 LPe1105 mezzanine card in a VC environment through a Brocade switch, both the target LUN and the WWN for the boot controller will not be visible in the zone, in the switch administrative tool. The work-around is to take note of the mezzanine card’s WWN when installing it into the system, or get it from the VC manager or EFI utility. Then manually enter the WWN into the desired zone on the switch when configuring the zone. Scan for targets and continue with normal installation steps to boot from the mezzanine card. ·EFI boot path configuration will not detect multiple controller ports connected to one HBA thru McData fabric. ·In a BFS configuration, the installed HBAs may display different names when viewed through the device manager. This is a cosmetic condition, not a functional issue. ·The Emulex 81E and 82E HBAs (AJ762A and AJ763A) running the Universal Boot Image 5.03a0, does not support Boot from SAN on the DL160 G5 Proliant server. ·When the Load Driver option is selected during the operating system build of a Windows 2008 server in a Boot from SAN Configuration, a multiple entry of the Emulex driver will be displayed. If multiple types of HBAs are displayed, select the first entry, then proceed. ·TFTP type monitors cannot be used to install an operating system on Itanium servers. Instead, you must use a VGA type monitor. ·A direct connect environment is not supported with the EVA4400, EVA4000/6000/8000 storage array (i.e., there is no FC switch between the HBA and the storage array). HP recommends that you implement zoning with HBAs, as described in the HP StorageWorks SAN design reference guide, available at the website: http://h18006.www1.hp.com/products/storageworks/san/documentation.html.
