EMC Host Connectivity with Emulex FC HBAs and FCoE CNAs for the Linux Environment

Updating the Adapter and CEE/Menlo Firmware

Updating Emulex CEE /Menlo firmware for LP21000-E/LP21002-E

FCoE adapters

Each Emulex Fibre Channel controller has a flash upgradable

firmware and boot BIOS. In most instances, it is necessary to keep

only the firmware up-to-date, because the BIOS is applied only when

using connected storage as a boot device. The latest supported

firmware can be found on the Emulex website:

http://www.emulex.com/ts/docoem/framemc.htm

From this site, select the appropriate file for your adapter. The files

are typically in a

.zip file that contains different combinations of

firmware and BIOS images. Extract the downloaded file to a diskette,

and refer to

readme.txt to determine which filename image to use.

IMPORTANT

If you are upgrading the firmware and BIOS, you must upgrade the

firmware first, because it might contain an older BIOS version,

which you can update separately later.

FCoE adapters include an additional chip component which requires

the latest supported firmware. This chip is commonly referred to as a

CEE (converged enhanced ethernet) or "Menlo" chip, the purpose of

which is to handle the convergence of storage (FC) and network (IP)

traffic over a single ethernet interface.

Note: To update the boot BIOS, refer to Chapter 3, ”Installing and

Configuring the BIOS Settings.”

To update the CEE/Menlo firmware on the CNAs, follow these steps:

1. Copy the appropriate CEE/Menlo firmware file from the

CD-ROM or the EMC-approved section of the Emulex website to

the appropriate directory, /usr/sbin/hbanyware.

2. Execute the command /usr/sbin/hbanyware/hbacmd ListHBA,

and record the "Port WWN" information for all adapters within

the host.

3. Execute the command /usr/sbin/hbanyware/hbacmd

CEEdownload <WWPN> <CEEfirmwarefile>, where WWPN is

the first Port WWN recorded from Step 2, and CEEfirmwarefile is

1 2 ... 97 98 99 100 101 102 103 104 105 106 107 ... 181 182
