FC100/P HBA and the missing FCode

From: Steve Camp (steve@aslan.camp.com)
Date: Thu Mar 27 2003 - 14:28:04 EST


Hi All,

In an E220R running Solaris 9, a Sun-purchased FC100/P FC-AL HBA does
not appear to have the correct version of the FCode installed. Attempts
to install the latest FCode (from patch 109399-03) appear to fail, that
is, to NOT install.

About a month ago, I had 'flash-upgraded' two FC100/P FC-AL HBAs in this
system. The upgrade appeared to go well, at least as I recall. However,
one of the cards is now shoing "No version available for this FCode" when
it is queried via the 'luxadm glgc_s_download' command.

Patch 113043-02 (luxadm) is installed.

Anybody seen this behavior?

Thanks for any help, suggestions etc.
