1HP-UX Installation

This chapter contains the following sections that describe how to install the A7011A or A7012A PCI-X 2-Port

Gigabit Ethernet adapters on an HP-UX system:

• “Hardware and Software Installation Procedure”

• “Network Card Configuration Worksheet”

Thank you for purchasing HP I/O Cards

If you are installing an HP I/O card as an add-in device, please review this document before installation.

If an HP I/O card was factory installed in your server, you can skip to “Step 7: Verify the installation” on

page 7 to verify the installation.

HP welcomes your input. Please email us at: netinf[email protected].com with comments or suggestions on

HP I/O Cards or related documentation.

All product documentation, including a comprehensive support guide, installation guide, release notes, as

well as information on supported servers, HP-UX versions, drivers, and patches, is available online at:

http://docs.hp.com

1. Click on “browse by topic”.

2. Click on “networking and communications”.

3. Click on the 1000Base-T and 1000Base-SX (Gigabit Ethernet) product category.

Hardware and Software Installation Procedure

These instructions apply to the A7011A (1000Base-SX--fiber-based) and A7012A (1000Base-T--copper-based)

PCI-X gigabit Ethernet cards on HP-UX 11i v 1.0. The Base-T cards operate at 10 or 100 Mbit/s in either full-

or half-duplex modes and at 1000 Mbit/s only in full-duplex mode. The 1000Base-SX cards operate only at

1000 Mbit/s and in full-duplex mode. Ensure that you set both your switch and gigabit Ethernet card to

autonegotiation or set both to the same speed and duplex mode. The LAN card driver for HP-UX 11i v 1.0 is

on the December 2003 application CD; for HP-UX 11i v 2.0, the driver is on the March 2004 application CD.

Note: you will not need to perform the following hardware and software installation steps if your Gigabit

Ethernet card was factory installed (product option 0D1) or its LAN port is “built-in” or “core” LAN.

These PCI-X gigabit Ethernet cards can be added to your system or replaced without the need to shut down or

reboot the system--a process called online addition and replacement (OL*). For instructions on how to perform

online addition and replacement (OL*), see Configuring HP-UX For Peripherals for HP9000 Computers. The

following instructions assume you are not performing online addition and replacement.

Step 1: Access the system card bay

• If the system is running, (and you are not using online addition and replacement), shut it down by

executing: shutdown -h. Respond “y” to the continue to shutdown prompt.

• Wait for the system to shut down completely, and then power off the system by pressing the system off

button. Ensure that the system is grounded.

• Open the system to gain access to the PCI backplane.

HP-UX Installation

Hardware and Software Installation Procedure

Chapter 1

• Select an empty PCI or PCI-X slot and remove the slot cover. The card can operate in PCI as well as PCI-X

mode.

Step 2: Install the card

• Check the latest support matrix to see the systems that support this card, how many cards per system,

and if any software updates are needed, The support matrix is available on the web at http://docs.hp.com

under “Networking and Communications.”

• Observe the antistatic precautions. HP recommends wearing ESD straps when installing the card.

• Record the serial number and MAC address located on the card for future reference.

• Grasp the card by its edges or faceplate with both hands, insert the card into the slot, and firmly but

gently press the card in until it is fully seated.

• Secure the card and reassemble the system.

Step 3: Connect the card to the network

• Attach the network cable (or cables) to the card. Attach the connector from a LAN cable to the card

(Figure 1). For 1000Base-SX, cabling can be either 62.5 micron or 50 micron multimode fiber optic (MMF)

cable with LC connectors. If the remote connection is type SC, you will need an LC-to-SC conversion cable.

For 1000Base-T, cabling must be Cat 5 UTP or better with RJ-45 connectors. Refer to the tables at the end

of this procedure for operating distances.

• Attach the free end of the LAN cable (or cables) to any unused port(s) on the switch. Set the interfacing

ports on the switch to the same settings as this LAN card: either set the card and switch port to

autonegotiation, or set them to the same speed and duplex mode.

The A7012A card does not interoperate with older switches containing a BCM 5400 PHY with a version

earlier than C-5. The problem occurs when interfacing with switches such as the HP Procurve Module

J4115A; version J4115B fixes the Procurve problem.

If you are using Jumbo Ethernet frames, ensure that all end stations on a given LAN* have the same

maximum transmission unit (MTU) setting. However, switch ports in your LAN can have any MTU

setting greater than or equal to the end station’s MTU. (*Note: here “LAN” means that the end stations do

not have any routers or layer 3 switches in between them.)

• Ensure power cable is connected to system. Power up the system.

Step 4: Prepare to install the software

• Log in as root.

• Check that the /usr/bin, /usr/sbin and /sbin directories are in your PATH using the command: echo

$PATH

• Check the HP-UX version by entering: uname -r

# uname -r

B.11.11

The version must be either B.11.11 (11i v 1.0) or B.11.23 (11i v 2.0).

• Install the appropriate patches for your system as described in the Release Notes, which are available on

the Web at http://docs.hp.com under Networking and Communications.

HP-UX Installation

Hardware and Software Installation Procedure

Chapter 1 7

Step 5: Install the latest software

• Load the software media into the appropriate drive. The Gigabit Ethernet software bundle (IEther-00)

for HP-UX 11i v 1.0 is on the December 2003 application CD; for HP-UX 11i v 2.0, the driver is on the

March 2004 application CD.

• Run the swinstall program to install the software using the command: swinstall.

• Change the host name after “Source Host Name,” if necessary.

• Click the Source Depot Path to identify the registered depot for the appropriate source depot path and

activate the OK button to return to the Software Selection Window.

• Highlight the 1000Base-SX/T software IEther-00 (for cards such as A7011A and A7012A) on HP-UX 11i

v 1.0 or 11i v 2.0.

• Choose Mark for Install from the “Actions” menu to choose the product to be installed.

• Choose Install from the “Actions” menu to begin product installation and open the Install Analysis

Window.

• Activate the OK button in the Install Analysis Window when the Status field displays a Ready message.

• Activate the YES button at the Confirmation Window to confirm that you want to install the software.

swinstall loads the fileset, runs the control scripts for the filesets, and builds the kernel. This should

take about 3 to 5 minutes. When the status field indicates Ready, click Done. A Note Window then opens.

Click the OK button to reboot the system.

Step 6: Configure the card using SAM

• Log in as root and verify that the card and its hardware path are displayed by entering: ioscan.

• Run the System Administration Manager by entering sam.

• Double-click Networking and Communications.

• Double-click Network Interface Cards.

• Highlight the Gigabit Ethernet card and choose Configure from the Actions menu.

• Fill in the form according to the instructions using the “Network Card Configuration Worksheet” on

page 9.

• Click the OK button to activate the card and then select exit from the File menu until you exit SAM.

Step 7: Verify the installation

• Verify that the connector’s Link LED is steadily on (this means the card and driver are installed

successfully).

• Obtain the PPA number and the station address of each card by using the lanscan command.

• To verify link-level connectivity with a remote system, enter:

$ linkloop -i PPA_number remote_station_address

• To verify IP-level connectivity with a remote system, enter:

$ping Remote_IP_Address and netstat -in

HP-UX Installation

Hardware and Software Installation Procedure

Chapter 1

• Installation is complete when you have successfully run linkloop,ping and netstat. To configure

remote systems, see the Ethernet Support Guide available on the web at http://docs.hp.com. Do this step

only if remote systems have not been previously configured.

• Optionally, if you want to verify that the iether driver appears for each installed card, enter: ioscan -f

The ioscan output might look like the following:

Class I H/W Path Driver S/W State H/W Type Description

lan 3 1/10/0/1 iether CLAIMED INTERFACE HPA7011A PCI/PCI-X 1000Base-SX 2Port

GigEAdapter

The third column shows the hardware path of the slot in which the card is installed. This path will be

different for each installed card.

Optional Step: Configure Jumbo Frames Size

NOTE Jumbo frames are supported only at 1000 Mbit/s.

• Jumbo frames for the iether driver on HP-UX 11i v 1.0 have mtu_size in the range of 1501-9000 bytes.

If you are using Jumbo Ethernet frames, ensure that all end stations on a given LAN* have the same

maximum transmission unit (MTU) setting. However, switch ports in your LAN can have any MTU

setting greater than or equal to the end station’s MTU. (*Note: here “LAN” means that the end stations do

not have any routers or layer 3 switches in between them.)

• Obtain the PPA number of the card by entering lanscan.

• Choose one of two configuration methods that will permanently save your configuration.

— use the GUI-based system admin manager (SAM).

To use SAM, type sam at the HP-UX system prompt; then double-click Networking and

Communications, and then Advanced Configuration--see Ethernet Support Guide for details, and then

do the steps for verifying the MTU size; or

edit the following configuration file using an editor such as “vi”:

/etc/rc.config.d/hpietherconf.

Set the mtusize by editing HP_IETHER_MTU[0]=mtusize, and insert the proper interface name:

HP_IETHER_INTERFACE_NAME. When the system reboots, the interface will be configured for

jumbo frame operation.

• Verify MTU change by entering netstat -rn. If MTU has not changed, enter the following commands:

$ifconfig lan PPA_number unplumb

$ifconfig lan PPA_number ip_address netmask netmask up

• To check (or verify) the current Ethernet frame size, enter:

$lanadmin -m PPA_number

An alternative way to temporarily** configure jumbo frame size is to enter:

lanadmin -M mtu_size PPA_number.

The PPA_number is the one we obtained from the output of lanscan. For the iether Gigabit Ethernet driver,

the MTU value must be a value between 1501 and 9000 (for Jumbo Frames).

**Note: using lanadmin will not preserve your settings across reboots.

Network Card Configuration Worksheet

Chapter 1

Note 1: To configure values permanently, edit the configuration files. Using lanadmin will not preserve your

settings across reboots.

Note 2: The speed configuration of the card can be 10, 100, or 1000Mbps and is determined by the speed

setting of the hub or switch port to which the card is connected. The card automatically senses this speed. The

Base-T card only runs at one speed at a time. To verify the speed selection, run lanadmin -x ppa#.

Note 3: The valid MTU range for the iether driver on HP-UX 11i v 1.0 is 257 - 9000; for Jumbo Frames, the

valid MTU size is any number from 1501 - 9000.

Operating Distance for 1000Base-T (Copper UTP): Up to 100 meters — Cat 5 and Cat 5E

Operating distances for 1000Base-SX using multi-mode fiber optic cable are as follows:
