Upgrading the HBA BIOS

Installing and Configuring the QLogic HBA and v8.x-Series Driver

EMC recommended NVRAM settings for Linux

Table 1 lists the NVRAM parameters and their values. The QLogic

default values are those that ship with a standard HBA that wasn't

included in an EMC package. The EMC-recommended settings

depend upon whether or not failover functionality is used. The

settings listed under the No Failover Functionality heading are those

that have been pre-configured in the EMC-approved NVRAM file.

The settings listed under the With PowerPath or Veritas DMP

heading are those that have been tested and determined to be

applicable in a Linux environment.

The settings are configurable in NVRAM using the Host Adapter

Settings, Advanced Settings, and Extended Firmware Settings

menus. To use SANsurfer or the SANsurferCLI to modify the

NVRAM settings, please refer to the SANsurfer or SANsurferCLI

documentation from QLogic.
