Configuring a Boot Device on an EMC Storage Array
3. After Fast!UTIL loads, the display depends on whether there are
multiple QLogic adapters installed:
If there is only one QLogic adapter, the Fast!UTIL Options
menu appears.
If there are multiple QLogic adapters, a list of addresses
occupied by those adapters appears. Since the EMC storage
array is attached to the lowest-numbered PCI slot, select the
first adapter from the list; then press Enter. The Fast!UTIL
Options menu appears.
4. From the Fast!UTIL Options menu, select Configuration
Settings and press Enter.
5. From the Configuration Settings menu, select Adapter Settings
and press Enter.
6. From the Host Adapter Settings menu, select Host Adapter
BIOS and press Enter to enable it if it is not already enabled.
Note: Refer to Table 3 on page 36 for recommended settings.
7. Press ESC to exit the Configuration Settings menu.
8. From the Configuration Settings menu, select Selectable Boot
Settings and press Enter.
9. From the Selectable Boot Settings menu, select Selectable Boot
Device and press Enter to enable this option if it is not already
enabled.
10. Select Current Boot Node Name and press Enter.
The adapter will scan for attached storage devices which will be
displayed on the screen.
Note: Depending upon the VNX series or CLARiiON system model, the
adapter may not yet detect any LUNs or it may detect a LUNZ labeled
device. This behavior is acceptable and to be expected.
11. Skip from the BIOS configuration to a separate host that has
Unisphere/Navisphere Management software installed and is
attached to the VNX series or CLARiiON storage system.
Since the operating system is not yet installed, the Naviagent/CLI
is not running on the Linux host. Therefore, the adapter may need
to be registered manually.
