2.1 Setup Procedure for non-S26361-F3023-E1 Fibre Channel Cards
This section describes how to set up the VMware ESX server for use with the S26361-F2843-E1/S26361-F2843-E201, S26361-F3141-E10/S26361-F3141-E210, S26361-F3141-E1, S26361-F3306-E1/S26361-F3306-E201, S26361-F3961-E1/S26361-F3961-E201, S26361-F3961-E2/S26361-F3961-E202, S26361-F3306-E601, or MC-FC82E Fibre Channel card.
When the S26361-F3023-E1 Fibre Channel card is used, follow the procedure in "2.2 SetupProcedure for S26361-F3023-E1 Fibre Channel Cards" (page 21).
2.1.1 Setting Up the Fibre Channel Card
Install the Fibre Channel card to the server and acquire its physical address and WWN (WorldWide Name).
� Physical address and Fibre Channel card WWN are required information in the cases shown as follows; when an error has occurred in the system, when using the ETERNUS Disk storage systems' host affinity function, etc., to restrict server access, or when connecting the ETERNUS Disk storage systems and the server using Fibre Channel switch.
� The relationship between a physical address and WWN cannot be determined from the BIOS. The physical address and WWN must be recorded as a pair when each Fibre Channel card is installed. Physical address and WWN must be assigned to "WWN instance management table for the server".
The procedures are described below:
(1) Install the Fibre Channel card
(2) Turn on the server
(3) Acquire the physical address and WWN for the Fibre Channel card
(4) Add a record for the server in the WWN instance management table for the server
Depending on the Fibre Channel card used, the actual on-screen FibreChannel card information may differ from that in the screenshots shown inthis document.

2.2 Setup Procedure for S26361-F3023-E1 Fibre Channel Cards
This section describes how to set up the VMware ESX server for use with the S26361-F3023-E1Fibre Channel card.
When the S26361-F2843-E1/S26361-F2843-E201, S26361-F3141-E10/S26361-F3141-E210,S26361-F3141-E1, S26361-F3306-E1/S26361-F3306-E201, S26361-F3961-E1/S26361-F3961-E201, S26361-F3961-E2/S26361-F3961-E202, S26361-F3306-E601, or MC-FC82E FibreChannel card is used, follow the procedure in "2.1 Setup Procedure for non-S26361-F3023-E1Fibre Channel Cards" (page 9).
2.2.1 Setting Up the Fibre Channel Card
Install the Fibre Channel card to the server and acquire its physical address and WWN (WorldWide Name).
� Physical address and Fibre Channel card WWN are required information in the cases shown as follows; when an error has occurred in the system, when using the ETERNUS Disk storage systems' host affinity function, etc., to restrict server access, or when connecting the ETERNUS Disk storage systems and the server using Fibre Channel switch.
� The relationship between a physical address and WWN cannot be determined from the BIOS. The physical address and WWN must be recorded as a pair when each Fibre Channel card is installed. Physical address and WWN must be assigned to "WWN instance management table for the server".
The procedures are described below:
(1) Install the Fibre Channel card
(2) Turn on the server
(3) Acquire the physical address and WWN for the Fibre Channel card
(4) Add a record for the server in the WWN instance management table for the server
Depending on the Fibre Channel card used, the actual on-screen FibreChannel card information may differ from that in the screenshots shown inthis document.

� Physical address and Fibre Channel card WWN are required information in the cases shown as follows; when an error has occurred in the system, when using the ETERNUS Disk storage systems' host affinity function, etc., to restrict server access, or when connecting the ETERNUS Disk storage systems and the server using Fibre Channel switch.
� The relationship between a physical address and WWN cannot be determined from the BIOS. The physical address and WWN must be recorded as a pair when each Fibre Channel card is installed. Physical address and WWN must be assigned to "WWN instance management table for the server".
The procedures are described below:
(1) Install the Fibre Channel card
(2) Turn on the server
(3) Acquire the physical address and WWN for the Fibre Channel card
(4) Add a record for the server in the WWN instance management table for the server
Add the acquired record in the "WWN instance management table for the server" (found in"Appendix A WWN Instance Management Table for the Server (Blank)" (page 39)).

3.1.4 Setting Up the Fibre Channel Card Driver
To connect to the ETERNUS2000, change the parameters for the Fibre Channel card driver.
Procedure
1 Record the module name for the Fibre Channel card that is loaded into VMware ESX.In the following example, "lpfc820" is recorded as the module name.
Module names may vary depending on the Fibre Channel card that is used.
2 Check the default value for the Fibre Channel card.Specify the module name for the Fibre Channel card that you recorded in Step 1 andcheck the default value.
3 Check the number of ports on the Fibre Channel card.The SCSI Host numbers of the Fibre Channel card that are displayed represent thenumber of ports.In the following example, the number of ports is "two" since "4" and "5" (two numbers) aredisplayed as the SCSI Host numbers of the Fibre Channel card.
When connecting to the ETERNUS4000 or ETERNUS8000, theparameters for the Fibre Channel card driver do not have to be changedbecause the default values of the standard driver for VMware ESX areused.
# vmkload_mod -l | grep lpfc*lpfc820 ↑ Loaded module name
# esxcfg-module -g lpfc820lpfc820 enabled = 1 options = '' ← Check that no value appears.
# ls /proc/scsi/lpfc4 5
↑ ↑The number of ports is "two".
