Other Information You May Need

In addition to this document, see the documentation provided with the HBA
and Fibre Channel switch hardware for vendor-specific information required
to complete Fibre-Channel setup on your storage array.

Installing Supported Fibre Channel HBAs

The storage array supports a specific set of Fibre Channel HBAs, each
requiring a unique driver and firmware level. See the Support Matrix at
support.dell.com/manuals for a list of supported HBAs with the software
patches, knowledge bases, drivers, firmware, and BIOS versions.
If an HBA is already installed on your host server, verify that it is supported in
the Support Matrix and is operating at the driver and/or firmware level
specified. If the HBA is not listed in the Support Matrix, it should not be used
to connect to the storage array.
CAUTION:
Connecting the storage array to a non-supported host server HBA or
installing non-qualified HBA drivers or firmware can cause instability or loss of
access to your data.

Installing Fibre Channel HBA on Your Host Server

For instructions about physically installing an HBA in your host server and
loading supported drivers and firmware, see the documentation supplied with
your HBA hardware.
NOTE:
During installation you must enter the manufacturer-specific timeout and/or
node time values. See the Support Matrix at support.dell.com/manuals for
information related to your specific HBA.
