Introduction
1.1
How to Use this Guide
The SANblade™ QLogic® host bus adapters (HBAs) supported in this document
are described in the following paragraphs:
■ QLA®4010 (single channel, full-height bracket, optical media)
■ QLA®4010C (single channel, full-height bracket, copper media)
The QLA4010 HBA is 32/64-bit, 33/66/133-MHz PCI-X to iSCSI over Gigabit
Ethernet on optical media. The QLA4010C HBA is 32/64-bit, 33/66/133-MHz PCI-X
to iSCSI over Gigabit Ethernet on twisted-pair copper media.
This guide contains installation instructions for the hardware (QLA4010/4010C
HBA) supported software drivers, and BIOS configuration utility (Fast!UTIL). Install
these components in the following order:
1. Install the QLA4010/4010C HBA in your PC.
2. Install the software driver according to the directions in the appropriate section.
NOTE: For a Solaris SPARC system the driver must be installed before
installation of the HBA.
3. Optionally, you can customize the QLA4010/4010C HBA and its attached
devices using the Fast!UTIL BIOS utility. See the associated readme.txt file for
detailed instructions.
1.2
General Description
The QLA4010/4010C is an iSCSI HBA that provides PCI connectivity to SCSI using
the iSCSI protocol. This release of the QLA4010/4010C HBA implements draft 20
of the IETF iSCSI standard, which creates a new industry standard SAN technology
based on internet protocols: TCP/IP. Any updates to the standard will be available
for downloads to the HBA. iSCSI enables new IP-based SANs, which are similar to
Fibre Channel SANs, as well as a new set of storage applications, for example,
remote storage.
The QLA4010/4010C HBA implements the complete protocol stack, including
TCP/IP,ontheHBAandoff-loadsthehostofanyI/Oprotocolprocessing.Off-loading
the host frees the system to perform other tasks and deliver optimum total system
performance. The QLA4010/4010C HBA handles complete SCSI transactions,
iSCSI, TCP/IP, and Ethernet.

2.1
Installation in the Computer
NOTE: ForaSolarisSPARCoperatingsystem, thedrivermustbeinstalledbefore
installation of the HBA. See the associated readme.txt file for detailed
instructions on how to install the driver.
Before you install the QLA4010/4010C HBA in your computer, you need the
following:
■ A screwdriver (usually a Phillips #1)
■ An optical mutimode cable with an LC-style duplex connector for the QLA4010
HBA.
■ A Cat5e or Cat6 straight-through cable (not cross-over cable) with an RJ45
connector for the QLA4010C HBA.
CAUTION! The QLA4010/4010C HBA contains parts that can be damaged by
ESD. Before handling the QLA4010/4010C HBA, use standard
methods to discharge static electricity. Keep the QLA4010/4010C
HBA in the antistatic bag until you are ready to install it. Place the HBA
on the bag when you examine or configure it. Retain the bag for future
use.
Perform the following steps to install the QLA4010/4010C HBA in your PC:
1. Check the motherboard and make any configuration changes necessary to
accommodate the QLA4010/4010C HBA.
The QLA4010/4010C HBA is self-configuring; however, some motherboards
require manual configuration. For example, some systems have a PCI Device
Configuration menu in the motherboard setup BIOS where you must enable
HBAs, bus master slots, and IRQ levels. If the motherboard supports triggering,
use level triggering for the QLA4010/4010C HBA. See the documentation
supplied with your computer, or contact your computer dealer to determine if
your motherboard requires configuration.
2. Power down the peripherals, then the computer.
3. Remove the computer cover and save the screws.
4. Choose any PCI bus slot that supports bus mastering. Most motherboards
automatically assign an IRQ level and interrupt line; if your motherboard does
not, you must assign the IRQ level and use interrupt line A for this slot.

2 – QLA4010/4010C
Installation in the Computer
Q
NOTE:
■ Some motherboards have two kinds of PCI bus slots: master and
slave. The QLA4010/4010C HBA must be in a PCI bus master slot.
(Some motherboards have PCI bus master slots that are shared with
onboard devices. QLA4010/4010C HBAs do not work in shared slots.)
■ PCI connectors vary among system HBA manufacturers. The
QLA4010/4010C HBA is a 64-bit PCI device that can function in a
32-bit PCI slot as long as the slot conforms to the PCI specification
(the rear edge of the PCI slot is notched). If you try to install the
QLA4010/4010C HBA into a PCI slot that does not conform to the PCI
specification, you may damage the QLA4010/4010C HBA.
■ PCI and PCI-X slots look the same. If the PC contains both PCI and
PCI-X slots, refer to the PC manufacturer’s instructions to determine
the slot type.
■ The QLA4010/4010C HBAs are designed and tested to operate at PCI
bus speeds of up to 66 MHz and PCI-X bus speeds of up to 133 MHz.
5. Remove the slot cover for the slot in which you will install the QLA4010/4010C
HBA.
6. Place the QLA4010/4010C HBA into the slot. Carefully press the HBA into the
slot until it seats firmly.
7. Secure the QLA4010/4010C HBA to the chassis. Follow the PC manufacturer’s
instructions.
8. Connecttheappropriatecablefromthedevicestothecorrespondingconnector.
9. Carefully reinstall the computer cover. Insert and tighten the computer cover
screws.
10. Power up the PC.
For Solaris SPARC systems, restart the system with the following command:
reboot -- -r
In addition, modify the system sd.conf file (/kernel/drv/sd.conf) for the operating
system (OS) to recognize new targets. QLogic recommends adding up to 255
targets. The QLA4010 supports up to 128 devices. The QLA4010 does not
support booting from a target attached to QLA4010.
11. Install the appropriate driver. See the associated readme.txt files for detailed
instructions on how to install the software drivers.
Optionally, you can customize the QLA4010/4010C HBA and its attached devices
using the Fast!UTIL BIOS utility. See the associated readme.txt file for detailed
instructions.
