Scanning for Fibre Devices
When LUNs are set up on the SAN before POST has completed (that is, before the boot
driver has been started), you can select 'Scan for Fibre Devices' or 'Add Boot Device' to
discover all available LUNs. Although this procedure does not perform a complete
HBA initialization, it executes faster than selecting “Reconnect Devices”.
Note: If you dynamically add LUNs after POST has completed and the driver has
been started, you must select Reconnect Devices to perform a complete HBA
initialization and discovery. If this step is not performed, all LUNs may not be
properly discovered.
You should also select Reconnect Devices after adding any discovered LUNs to
the NVRAM list.
To scan for Fibre devices:
1. From the Device Manager screen (Figure 13-2), select the adapter that you want to
scan for Fibre devices and press .
2. From the Emulex Adapter Configuration Main Menu, select Scan for Fibre Devices
and press . A list of discovered targets is displayed. This is only a list of
discovered target devices to quickly determine SAN connectivity and provide you
with a mechanism to have the port logged in for zoning.
Adding Boot Devices
To add a boot device:
1. From the Device Manager screen (Figure 13-2), select the adapter to which you
want to add a boot device and press .
