Setting Up and Booting Fibre Channel Storage
Devices
This appendix describes how to boot the Fibre Channel (FC)
storage device on OpenVMS I64 systems. FC storage is supported
on all storage arrays that are supported on OpenVMS systems.
OpenVMS I64 Version 8.2-1 supports the HP A6826A 2-port, 2-Gb
Fibre Channel host-based adapter (HBA) and its variants.
The HBA requires the latest RISC firmware and EFI firmware
and driver.
Fibre channel device booting supports point-to-point topology.
There is no plan to support FC arbitrated loop topology.
