Servers Workaround port connected to an MSA30 after a fresh operating system installation. The problem does not occur if you install the operating system using Reinstall media, or if the U320 is not used as a boot controller. All Integrity Install the driver using the individual Smart Component only found on the Software tab on your HP Smart Setup CD. Click the HP StorageWorks Event Notification Driver for Ultra320 SCSI devices for Windows Server 2003 on Itanium-based Systems link. Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI) and EFI-based Setup Utility (EBSU) I/O card firmware values display as unknown Issue Servers Workaround EBSU's Maintain Firmware feature displays some I/O card firmware values as unknown in the Local version column. This occurs when the card firmware does not return a data structure that EBSU recognizes because the card firmware is configured for 32-bit systems, it lacks an EFI driver, or has corrupted firmware. All Integrity Try flashing the card firmware to correct the problem. If the card still has unknown values after flashing it and resetting the system, contact your local support specialist or visit http://www.hp.com/support/itaniumservers for help. QLogic HBA firmware and EFI driver revisions display incorrectly Issue Servers Workaround The EBSU Maintain Firmware feature and the SANsurfer FC HBA Manager utility VPD tab might display QLogic HBA firmware and EFI driver values incorrectly after the binaries have been updated. No functionality issues exist because the binary itself is correctly flashed to the adapters Option ROM. For this to occur, a QLogic multi-boot package must be first updated using SANsurfer on a Windows IA64 system and then later updated in the EFI Shell by EBSU. These separate events can occur hours or even months apart. All Integrity Flash the QLogic multi-boot package again using SANsurfer on a Windows system. The firmware and EFI driver values display correctly during the HBA Power On Self Test (POST) while booting up. These values also display correctly in the Option ROM section on the Information tab in the SANSurfer FC HBA Manager utility. EBSU displays incorrect CPU version Issue Servers Workaround EBSU might display an inconsistent CPU version in the system inventory due to a system firmware issue. rx4640 Run info cpu on the EFI shell, and check the Rev column for the specific CPU module to determine the CPU version. EBSU displays incorrect firmware version Issue Servers Workaround EBSU displays the Emulex 4 Gigabit cards (FC2143 and FC2243) firmware version 2.10A10 as 2.10A1. sx2000, sx1000, rx8640, rx8620, rx7640, rx7620, rx6600, rx3600, rx2660 Run the Storage Adapter configuration for the Emulex card on EBSU. If the configuration tool lists more than one card, select the intended card on the tool and the firmware version is displayed correctly. Troubleshooting Common Issues 25
