Configuring a CLARiiON boot device

Configuring a Boot Device on an EMC Storage Array

◆ SCSI hard disks are allowed in SAN boot configurations.

However, the BIOS for the disk's SCSI adapters must be disabled.

Any SCSI disks attached to the host should be disconnected

during the operating system installation.

◆ For servers with SCSI CD-ROM drives, ensure that the BIOS is

enabled on the SCSI channel that includes the CD-ROM. Disable

the BIOS on any other integrated SCSI channels.

◆ For servers with IDE CD-ROM drivers, disable the BIOS on the

server's integrated SCSI adapter(s). The SCSI BIOS is not

required to boot from the CD-ROM.

◆ Disable the BIOS on any other HBAs in the system other than the

QLogic HBA designated for booting.

Configuring the QLogic BIOS for SAN boot

After After the BIOS is installed and enabled, it must be configured

for use for booting from the SAN. The following procedure describes

how to configure the BIOS.

1. Connect the CLARiiON SP fibre channel port to the adapter in the

lowest-numbered PCI slot in the server.

2. Boot the server, and press CTRL-Q when the QLogic banner is

displayed.

Note: Different HBA models may display different banners. Be sure to

press CTRL-Q for the HBA to be configured.

The banner display corresponds to the BIOS revision pertinent to

the HBAs currently installed. Refer to the EMC Support Support

for specific HBAs and BIOS revisions.

3. After Fast!UTIL loads, the display depends on whether there are

multiple QLogic HBAs installed:

• If there is only one QLogic HBA, the Fast!UTIL Options menu

appears.
