EMC Fibre Channel with QLogic HBAs in the Windows Environment
Installing and Configuring the QLogic QLA4010 iSCSI HBA (TOE)
Installing the HBA Driver
To use EMC storage array disks with a Windows host, you need an
EMC-qualified HBA driver. The HBA kit includes an EMC-approved
driver, which must be installed and configured prior to partitioning
the storage array disks. You should also check the QLogic website for
the latest EMC-approved version. To ease installation of the driver,
unzip the driver file onto a blank diskette or temporary folder on the
hard disk.
Windows 2003 STORPort Updates
Installation Procedure for Windows 2000 and Windows 2003 Hosts
Currently, the shipping version of Windows 2003 requires post-RTM
hotfixes to resolve some known issues. For all Windows 2003 STOR-
Port installations, you should obtain the current Microsoft QFE hotfix
listed in the EMC Support Matrix with the HBA driver revisions.
Install this hotfix before installing the HBA driver.
To install the driver into a Windows 2000 or Windows 2003 host, fol-
low these steps:
1. Boot the host with Windows 2000 or Windows 2003.
2. From the Windows taskbar, select Start, Programs,
Administrative Tools, Computer Management.
3. In the left pane of the Computer Management dialog, click the
Device Manager icon.
4. If Windows Plug-n-Play does not detect your QLA4010 HBA
model, it will be listed as Unknown or as a Network Controller
under the Other Devices icon in the right pane.
Windows 2000 configurations with Service Pack 4 or higher and
Windows 2003 configurations may be able to detect QLA4010
HBAs. If this occurs, the HBA will already be listed under SCSI
Devices; instead of proceeding with these installation steps,
follow the instructions under Updating the HBA Driver in a
Windows 2000 or Windows 2003 Host on page ?
5. Double-click the first instance of Unknown or Network
Controller under Other Devices.
