EMC Fibre Channel with QLogic HBAs in the Windows Environment
Configuring an EMC Boot Device
1. Type drivers at the EFI shell prompt to display the list of loaded
EFI drivers. You will see an entry (or entries) similar to the
following:
5D 0000011E B X X 1 HP 2 Gb Fibre Channel Driver PciRom Seg=00000000
5D 00000140 D X X 1 - Qlogic Fibre Channel Driver PciRom Seg=00000000
2. The first column (in this example, 5D) is the driver handle for the
HBA. To unload the EFI boot code driver, use the unload
command:
unload 5D
3. After all instances of the QLogic EFI boot code driver are
unloaded, proceed to the next section.
To flash the HBA with the latest EFI boot code, copy the files from the
EFI boot code package to a floppy disk. If your system does not have
a floppy drive, a USB pen drive can be used instead. If your system is
already booted to the EFI shell, insert the floppy or USB pen drive
and type
exit to exit the EFI shell. From the boot options menu,
select EFI Shell [Built-in] to go back into the EFI shell. This will
cause the EFI shell to re-discover disk devices and will locate the
floppy or pen drive.
When you enter the EFI shell, the device map should be displayed. If
it does not display, type
map at the shell> prompt to display the list
of detected devices. Disk devices that are accessible by the EFI shell
are listed as
FS devices. Switch to the device containing the EFI boot
code. This is accomplished by typing the name of the device and a
colon. For example, if the EFI boot code is on
fs1, type fs1: and
press
ENTER to switch to that device. If your HBA does not have EFI
boot code already installed, you must use the
EFIUTIL.EFI driver
utility in order to flash the board. At the command prompt, type
EFIUTIL and press ENTER. This will load the QLogic EFI utility and
display a efiutil> prompt. The following commands assume that the
EFI boot package files are all located in the same directory as the
EFIUTIL.EFI program.
1. To load the EFI driver onto the HBA, type ew and press
ENTER.
The driver image binary filename, by default, is
ql2312ef.bin.
The
EFIUTIL program will prompt for the filename, and pressing
ENTER selects the default. Confirm that the version being installed
is correct by typing
Y and pressing ENTER. The driver will begin
flashing to the HBA. The
efiutil> prompt will reappear when
the load is complete.
