1.3 HBA Identification
Each HBA ships with several numbers clearly marked on the board. Record these numbers before installation.
Serial number – Assigned by Emulex. Use this number when communicating with Broadcom Technical Support.
IEEE address – An IEEE unique 48-bit identifier used for system configuration.
WWN – Derived from the IEEE address; the FC industry uses the WWN for FC connectivity.
NOTE: IEEE addresses and WWNs are assigned in sequential order. For example, if an HBA has four ports, it has four
IEEE addresses and four WWNs, one for each port. The second, third, and fourth IEEE addresses and WWNs are
the next successive numbers after the first.

Chapter 2: Installation
The standard HBAs can be connected to fiber-optic cables.
If you do not need to change the HBA’s bracket, skip to Section 2.2, Installing the HBA. Otherwise, continue to
Section 2.1, Preparing the HBA for Installation.
2.1 Preparing the HBA for Installation
Most HBAs ship from the factory with a standard full-height PCIe mounting bracket installed, which you can remove and
replace with a low-profile bracket. Other HBAs ship from the factory with a low-profile PCIe mounting bracket installed, which
you can replace with a full-height bracket.
Some HBAs have removable optical transceivers, whereas others have fixed optical transceivers. If you are replacing the
mounting bracket, and the HBA has removable optical transceivers, you must first remove all installed optical transceivers
from the housing (cage).
See the following table to determine the type of optical transceivers and the type of mounting bracket that are
factory-installed on each HBA model.
If the HBA does not contain removable optical transceivers, skip to Step 3. Otherwise, follow these steps:
1. Remove the transceivers from their cage assemblies.
The HBA uses various types of optical transceivers. Figure 1 shows an example of one type with the bail (handle)
extended.

Figure 1: Typical Optical Transceiver
CAUTION! This is a delicate operation. Take care not to damage the optical transceiver.
To remove a transceiver, pull the bail (handle) out and down to release the latch, and gently pull out the transceiver. Do
not force it. After the latch is released, the transceiver slides out easily.
Figure 2 shows a transceiver with the latch released (bail extended) and another transceiver latched in place.

2. Observing ESD precautions, store the transceiver in an ESD-safe place.
3. Remove the mounting bracket screws and washers from the top of the HBA. Figure 4 shows the screws that are removed
from the mounting bracket.
Figure 4: Removing the Mounting Bracket
4. Remove the mounting bracket, and store it for future use.
5. Align the new mounting bracket tabs with the holes in the HBA.
CAUTION! Be careful not to push the mounting bracket past the grounding tabs on the transceiver housing. Make sure the
LEDs are properly aligned with the holes in the mounting bracket.

Emulex Host Bus Adapters Installation Guide
6. Reinstall the screws and washers that attach the HBA to the mounting bracket. If you did not remove optical transceivers,
skip to Section 2.2, Installing the HBA.
7. Reinstall the transceiver by sliding it into the housing. When the latch engages, it clicks.
8. Push the bail back into place.
2.2 Installing the HBA
To install the HBA, follow these steps:
1. Turn off the computer if hot-plug installation is not supported on the computer.
Refer to your computer documentation to see if the computer supports hot-plug or hot-swap of PCIe HBA cards.
2. Remove the computer case.
3. Remove the blank panel from an empty PCIe bus slot. All Emulex HBAs except LPe36002 HBAs can use x16 PCIe bus
slots. All Emulex HBAs except LPe35004 HBAs can use x8 PCIe bus slots.
4. Insert the HBA into the empty slot. Press firmly until the HBA is seated.
NOTE: Make sure that the HBA is in an appropriate PCIe slot that does not interfere with other components or with the
case to prevent damage to the HBA.
5. Secure the HBA mounting bracket to the case with a panel screw or clip.
6. Replace the computer case and tighten the case screws.
The HBA is now installed in the server and is ready for an FC device.
2.3 Attaching Media
NOTE: The HBA does not allow normal data transmission on an optical link unless it is connected to another similar or
compatible laser product (that is, multimode to multimode, or single-mode to single-mode).
The HBA does not automatically downgrade to the required FC speed based on the cable length. You must
downgrade the speed with the appropriate utility, or link errors might occur.
Use a multimode fiber-optic cable with short-wave lasers, or use a single-mode fiber-optic cable with long-wave lasers. The
cable must adhere to the specifications in the following tables. See the table that includes your HBA.

2.4.1 Viewing the LEDs
You can view the yellow and green LEDs through openings in the HBA's mounting bracket. The yellow LED indicates port
activity or link speed, and the green LED indicates firmware operation. Each port has a corresponding set of yellow and
green LEDs.

2.4.2 POST Conditions and Results
POST is the default mode of self-test for Emulex HBAs. No jumpers or connectors are necessary for this test to run. This
test performs a quick confidence level check of the HBA when it is powered on, and before it runs the operational software.
At a minimum, the following tests are performed by POST:
Flash boot image checksum test
Internal ASIC RAM tests for proper ECC parity operation
Loopback test

Emulex Host Bus Adapters Installation Guide
The following table summarizes POST conditions and results.
NOTE: For the link rate conditions, a 1s pause occurs when the yellow LED is off between each group of fast blinks (2, 3,
4, or 5, depending on the HBA). Observe the LED sequence for several seconds to be sure you have correctly
identified the pattern.
2.5 Changing the Speed of the HBA
You can change the speed of the link on the following HBAs by replacing the optical transceivers:
The transmission speed of the LPe35000-series and LPe36000-series adapters can be changed from 32GFC to
64GFC or from 64GFC to 32GFC.
The transmission speed of the LPe31000-series and LPe32000-series HBAs can be changed from 16GFC to 32GFC or
from 32GFC to 16GFC.
2.6 Setting the Secure Firmware Jumper
LPe31000-series HBAs and LPe32000-series HBAs have a jumper that enables or disables the Secure Firmware feature
as required.
To update the firmware using a tool, such as the Emulex HBA Manager application (formerly the OneCommand™ Manager
application), boot utilities, or Elxflash utilities, there is no need to remove the jumper. The Secure Firmware feature can
remain enabled as long as the update is from one secure firmware version to another secure firmware version. To change
the firmware version from a secure firmware version to an unsecured firmware version, you must first remove the jumper
before updating the firmware.
Replace the jumper after the firmware update is complete.
The next two figures provide examples of common locations of the Secure Firmware jumper.
