HBAAPI library 4.06 | - IBM Tape support requires IBMtape 4.1.0.2
After installing this new IBM device driver, issue the following Tivoli Storage Manager command: UPDATE LIBRARY libraryName SERIAL=AUTODETECT
- For Tivoli Storage Manager devices, the following files should be updated for SAN discovery to work properly:
- modify /usr/kernel/drv/mt.conf and /usr/kernel/drv/lb.conf to add the following lines:
mt.conf:
name="mt" parent="pseudo" instance=16383;
lb.conf
name="lb" parent="pseudo" instance=16383;
- Issue the following commands:
rem_drv lb
add_drv lb
rem_drv mt
add_drv mt add_drv -m '* 0666 bin bin' mt Alternatively, the autoconf command can do the above by itself.
- Make sure that the virtual device special file is in
/devices/pseudo/mt@16383:tsmmtctl and /devices/pseudo/lb@16383:tsmlbctl
- Issue the command twice

| Windows 2000
and Windows 2003 ( 32-bit only ) | - SCSIport miniport driver version 9.0.1.10 (QLA2300 and higher)
- SCSIport miniport driver version 8.1.5.15 (QLA2200)
| - IBM LTO tape support requires firmware level 4772
- Some older SAN hardware that does not fully support the SNIA API may respond "Queue Full" to some SCSI commands and cause SAN discovery to fail with errors. SDM will not be able to support these devices.

| Windows 2003 64 bit | - SCSIport miniport driver version 9.1.4.10 or higher
- Storport miniport driver version 9.1.4.15 or higher

| AIX | fileset devices.common.IBM.fc.hba-api required:
AIX version 5.2- 5.2.0.50
AIX version 5.3- 5.3.0.10 | - The HBAAPI fileset devices.common.IBM.fc.hba-api is required to be at least 5.2.0.50 for AIX5.2 or 5.3.0.10 for AIX5.3.
- After the fileset has been updated to the desired level, perform the following set option command to enable SAN discovery:

| Windows (32-bit) | - SCSIport Miniport Driver version 5.20a9
- FC Port Driver version 2.40a2
| Starting with storport driver version 1.30a9 (http://www.emulex.com/downloads/emulex/cnas-and-hbas/drivers/windows/scsiport-miniport-driver.html ) Emulex does not install the HBA API together with driver installation. Instead Emulex is providing a separate HBA API install (http://www.emulex.com/files/downloads/windows/tools/windows_tools.html ).
Tivoli Storage Manager SAN Discovery will only support SCSIport Miniport Driver Kit ( 5.31a0 ) PLUS Emulex API Library ( 2.2.2.0) for HBA running 32bit Windows 2003 + SP1. |
| Windows 2003 64 bit | - SCSIport miniport driver version 5.30.a2 or higher
