When connecting using QLogic OEM Fibre Channel cards with an Oracle Fibre Channel card driver, the config-
uration file will need to be edited as follows.
The "command queue depth" setting must be adjusted for both direct connection and switch connection. The
"command queue depth" setting is specified in the configuration file (/etc/system).
●For direct connection
Instance name data of the Fibre Channel card is necessary. Refer to the following sections to set.
•"1.3.1.1 Creating a WWN Instance Management Table for the Server" (page 9)
•"1.3.1.2 Setting the Configuration File (/etc/system)" (page 12)
●For switch connection
The Fibre Channel card Instance name, target WWN, and target ID information are necessary. Check each
item and enter them in the table. Edit the configuration file according to those information and make set-
tings. Refer to the following sections to set.
•"1.3.1.1 Creating a WWN Instance Management Table for the Server" (page 9)

WWN Instance Management Table for the Server
Physical slot name WWN Controller number Instance name Physical path name
1Check the instance names.
"qlc + instance number" is the format used to represent Fibre Channel card instance names.
The instance number that corresponds to the physical path in which the Fibre Channel card is installed
is stored in the "/etc/path_to_inst" file at the Fibre Channel card driver installation.
Extract necessary parts using the "grep" command.
# grep '"qlc"' /etc/path_to_inst
Example:
# grep '"qlc"' /etc/path_to_inst
"/pci@9,600000/SUNW,qlc@1" 0 "qlc"
"/pci@9,600000/SUNW,qlc@2" 1 "qlc"
The underlined portion "/pci@9,600000/SUNW,qlc@2" indicates the physical path name, and "1" indi-
cates the instance number.
2Enter the results in "Instance name" and "Physical path name" columns of the "WWN instance manage-
ment table for the server".
Example:
Physical slot
name WWN Controller num- ber Instance name Physical path name
qlc0 /pci@9,600000/SUNW,qlc@1
qlc1 /pci@9,600000/SUNW,qlc@2
3Enter the slot number of the Fibre Channel card installed in the server in the "Physical slot name" field
of the "WWN instance management table for the server".
Use the "/usr/platform/'uname-i'/sbin/prtdiag -v" command to check the installed Fibre Channel card
slot number.
Example: Excerpt from "/usr/platform/SUNW,SPARC-Enterprise-T5220/sbin/prtdiag -v" output

This completes the "WWN instance management table for the server".
1.3.1.2 Setting the Configuration File (/etc/system)
1Edit the configuration file.
Edit the configuration file (/etc/system) and specify the command queue depth.
The appropriate command queue depth is determined by the ETERNUS DX/AF model, as follows:
Model Setting value
Command queue depth
ETERNUS DX/AF Arbitrary (*1)
(Up to 1024 for each FC port of the ETERNUS DX/AF)
*1: Recommended value = 1024 ¸ (number of Fibre Channel ports that are connected to a single CA
port) ¸ number of LUNs
(Round the result down)
•Use the value of "8" if the actual result is lower.
•To achieve maximum system performance, this value can be changed according to the server
load and the peak operating times.
•The number of simultaneous command executions per CA port for the ETERNUS DX/AF is limited
to 1024. This value is used by multiple servers that share the CA port. A maximum of 1024 com-
mands can be executed per CA port.
•For the ETERNUS DX/AF
The parameter to be specified for the command queue depth is determined by the CPU which is in-
stalled in the server to be connected.
-For SPARC
Specify the command queue depth for the "ssd_max_throttle" parameter.
Add this parameter if it does not exist.
Example:
set ssd:ssd_max_throttle = 20

7Add the results in the "WWN instance management table for the server".
Example:
Physical slot
name WWN Controller num- ber Instance name Physical path name
10000000C94CDC42 C4 emlxs0 /pci@9,600000/SUNW,emlxs@1
10000000C94CDC43 C5 emlxs1 /pci@9,600000/SUNW,emlxs@1,1
This completes the "WWN instance management table for the server".
1.3.2.2 Setting the Configuration File (emlxs.conf)
Set the "topology" and "link speed" by editing the configuration file "emlxs.conf".
For setting procedure and parameters, refer to "1.5 Required Driver Parameters" (page 20).
•Solaris 11 OS
If the "/etc/driver/drv/emlxs.conf” file does not exist, copy the "/kernel/drv/emlxs.conf" file to the "/etc/driv-
er/drv" directory and add the line to the newly copied "emlxs.conf" file.
If the "/etc/driver/drv/emlxs.conf” file exists, do not copy over the file but instead add the line to the exist-
ing "emlxs.conf" file.
•Solaris 10 OS
Edit the "/kernel/drv/emlxs.conf" file.
1.3.2.3 Setting the Configuration File (/etc/system)
1Edit the configuration file.
Edit the configuration file (/etc/system) and specify the command queue depth.
The appropriate command queue depth is determined by the ETERNUS DX/AF model, as follows:
Model Setting value
Command queue depth
ETERNUS DX/AF Arbitrary (*1)
(Up to 1024 for each FC port of the ETERNUS DX/AF)
*1: Recommended value = 1024 ¸ (number of Fibre Channel ports that are connected to a single CA
port) ¸ number of LUNs
(Round the result down)
•Use the value of "8" if the actual result is lower.
•To achieve maximum system performance, this value can be changed according to the server
load and the peak operating times.
•The number of simultaneous command executions per CA port for the ETERNUS DX/AF is limited
to 1024. This value is used by multiple servers that share the CA port. A maximum of 1024 com-
mands can be executed per CA port.

•For the ETERNUS DX/AF
The parameter to be specified for the command queue depth is determined by the CPU which is in-
stalled in the server to be connected.
-For SPARC
Specify the command queue depth for the "ssd_max_throttle" parameter.
Add this parameter if it does not exist.
Example:
set ssd:ssd_max_throttle = 20
-For x86
Specify the command queue depth for the "sd_max_throttle" parameter.
Add this parameter if it does not exist.
Example:
set sd:sd_max_throttle = 20
2After editing the configuration file, save it.
3After the setting is complete, check the configuration file for incorrect settings.
4Reboot the server.
# /usr/sbin/shutdown -y -g0 -i6
1.4 Setting Up the Server to Recognize the Logical Units
Make the server recognize the ETERNUS DX/AF logical units using the ssd driver.
If Oracle Fibre Channel cards are used, the logical unit recognition method will depend on the ETERNUS
DX/AF storage systems to server connection topology. There are two possible connection topologies: direct
connection and switch connection.
1.4.1 For Direct Connection
Confirm that the logical units have been correctly recognized by servers.
