3.0 Microcode Description and Revision History
?
Warning:
New FW 2.03x5 has a fix for previously Mismatched WWPN/WWNN. This results in
a WWNN correction change after the firmware update and reboot.
Please note, a reboot is required because the WWPN/WWNN fix is in Fcode, and
Fcode is run at reboot time.
So, if Node WWNs were used for zoning before the firmware update, then after
the firmware update and reboot, they will need to be corrected using the
modified WWNN before target disks can be accessed by the host.
For example:
New WWPN and WWNNs should be the same except for the first digits.

Microcode Level
Changes
203305
(203x5)
with
FCode Level 3.10a7
Fix a FTE issue when a super large transmit sequence (over half-Mbytes) is
active and an Abort request comes in and causes a transmit stall.
Universial Boot code with FCode fix for mismatched WWPN/WWNN.
Change the adapter Rx Pole and Gain settings from 3-3 to 0-0 to improve Fibre
Channel signal receive.
Fix an Out of Order sequence handling.
The Firmware Levels Below Are No Longer Supported By IBM Once They Have Been
Removed From The Microcode Down Load Website.
It is best practices to update to the latest FW level not only for IBM
support of these products, but for optimal performance and to ensure that all
of the required HW/FW fixes are installed. Once new FW has been released to the
field, we will provide a 6 month grace period for customers to update these
products to the currently supported FW level
Please Update To The Latest Level At Your Earliest Convenience
202307
(202x7)
with
FCode Level 3.10x2
Fixes failing NPIV Write command on adapter residual mismatch
Fixes NPIV Write Timeout when burst length of XFR_RDY is 8 bytes
Fixes FW hit a 4KB page fault while accessing Protection DIF block.
Fixes? in F_CTL, the Sequence Context bit incorrectly =1 starting from the
second Data-out sequence. This bit must be 0 to indicate Sequence Originator.
200307
(200x7)
with
FCode Level 3.10a3
Provides host generated T10 Standard Data Integrity Field capability.
111304
(111x4)
with
FCode Level 3.10a3
Fixes a problem where a tape drive in a noisy SAN environment may drop frames
forcing a backup to rerun.
Fixes an intermittent power off/on problem where a reset signal may be left
in an active state. Prior to this level, the adapter may not respond to a
system that has been power cycled and the system will post an SRC BA180020
error.
Fixes a false parity error that may occur when one port of the adapter is
being configured by the firmware and the other port is being reset by the
firmware. Prior to this level, AIX would post SRN 2606-706 and the adapter
would be taken offline. If the adapter has the 111304 (1.11x4) already
installed, take the corrective action indicated by the SRN.
Enhances FC-Tape recovery so that it more robustly handles LS_RJTs from tape
devices. Sometimes, FCP commands from a device and the adapter will cross each
other on the wire and the adapter will send out retries to a tape device that
has already closed the I/O exchange. The adapter now evaluates if the retry
should be sent.
Enhances the FCode by adding a "set-post-linkup" command. Refer to the
Important Notes in Section 4.0 for details.
110305
with
FCode Level 3.01a1
This firmware contains changes to support NPIV on AIX.
Linux on Power Systems does not support NPIV so this update is not required
for Linux.
110105
(1.10a5)
with
FCode Level 3.01a1
This is the level of microcode that initially shipped with the adapter when
it becamegenerall available.
?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4.0 Cautions and Important Notes
窢牋牋? Limitation on down-level FW support
?
窢牋牋? Concurrent Download
The microcode installation supports concurrent download while the adapter and
attached drives are available for use.HOWEVER, it is highly recommended that
installation be scheduled during a maintenance window or during non-peak
production periods.
窢牋牋? Enhancement to FCode
The FCode has been enhanced by adding a "set-post-linkup" command. By
default, link up and initialization on the adapter occurs after the Power On
Self Test (POST). The new command will allow customers to switch to bringing
the link up and initializing it during POST by turning the support on. Once
turned on, it will remain on until the command is run again to turn it off.
Customers who would like to utilize this function should contact theIBM Support
Center for instructions.
窢牋牋? Notice for AIX and VIOS customers installing microcode
AIX APARs
Prior to installing the microcode, the following APARs are required to be
installed. Failure to do so may result in LPAR hang while installing microcode.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5.0 To Determine Adapter Microcode Levels
Before you install the microcode, it is important to determine the current
microcode level of the installed adapter.
5.1 AIX Systems
1) List the fibre channel adapters installed in the system by typing on the
command line:
lsdev -C | grep fcsX
Note the device names of all the fibre channel adapters installed. The
adapter device names will befcsX, where X is 0,1, or some other number. There
will be anfcsX listing for each port of the FC 5735 or 5273 adapter.
2) Determine the current microcode level on the adapter's port by typing on
the command line:
lsmcode -d fcsX
where X is the number of the adapter's port returned from the "lsdev" command
above.
A screen similar to the following will be displayed:
DISPLAY MICROCODE LEVEL 牋牋牋牋牋牋牋牋?802111
fcs8牋牋牋牋牋FC Adapter
The current microcode level for fcs8 is 203305.
Use Enter to continue.
F3=Cancel 牋牋牋牋牋牋F10=Exit 牋牋牋牋牋牋Enter
If the current microcode level is not 203305, then the microcode p_w_picpath on the
adapter's port is not at the latest level.
?
5.2 Linux Systems
The following steps are for Linux Red Hat or Novell (SuSE) systems running2.6
kernels which support the /sys filesystem. These steps assume you are logged on
with root permissions and one or more IBM 8 Gigabit PCI Express Dual PortFibre
Channel Adapter, Feature Code 5735, 5273 PN 10N9824 (or 00E0806) are installed.
1) Display the model name for each installed Fibre Channel adapter. Note: IBM
8 Gigabit PCI Express Dual PortFibre Channel Adapters will display as two
instances of model 10N9824 (or 00E0806); one for each port on the dual port
adapter. Type the following commands to display a list showinghost{n}:model for
each installed adapter.
cd /sys/class/scsi_host
find -L host* -maxdepth 1 -name "modelname" -printf %h: -exec cat {} \;
The output will be similar to that shown here. Note the host{n} portion for
each model 10N9824 (or 00E0806) in the list, host3 and host4 in this example.
These values are needed for next step. If the list is empty, either there are
no model 10N9824 (or 00E0806) adapters installed or there was an error in
typing the command. If the list contains other adapters but no model 10N9824
(or 00E0806) adapters are listed, none are installed.
host3:10N9824 (or 00E0806)
host4:10N9824 (or 00E0806)
2) Display the firmware version for each 10N9824 (or 00E0806) model adapter.
Type the following command, replacing host{n} for each model 10N9824 (or
00E0806) listed in Step 1.
cat host{n}/fwrev
The microcode version listed may vary but output will be similar to that
shown here:
2.03x5 (U3K2.03x5), sli-3
Repeat this command for each model 10N9824 (or 00E0806) host{n}. If one or
more model10N9824 (or 00E0806) adapter lists a microcode version that is not
2.03x5, then the microcode needs to be updated.
3) Display Linux Operating System version. Type the following command to
display the Operating System version. Make a note of Operating System version,
it will be needed later.
For Red Hat systems type following command.
cat /etc/redhat-release
Output will be similar to:
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.4 (Santiago)
For Novell systems, type following command. Output will be similar to:
cat /etc/SuSE-release
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 (ppc64)
VERSION = 11
PATCHLEVEL = 0

* Verify the hbacmd command is present by typing: ls /usr/sbin/hbacmd
* The output should list the file path for the hbacmd command.
* Verify the Driver Module lpfc is loaded by typing: lsmod
* Examine the output for the presence of lpfc in the loaded module list.
* If it is not present, type: modprobe -a lpfc to load the driver module,
examine the console messages for reported errors. If any of the prequisite
checks fail, review the installation documentation and ensure all steps were
completed. Look for any errors reported during installation. If problems
persist; contact IBM service.
2)牋? The microcode update will reset the fibre channel adapters; ensure that
all I/O activity to storage devices controlled by the adapter is stopped prior
to proceeding with firmware update.
?
3)牋? List installed Emulex adapters. Type /usr/sbin/hbacmd? listhbas
Output from this command will be similar to the following, one section will
be displayed for each discovered adapter. Model 10N9824 (or 00E0806) adapters
can be identified by looking forf100 in Flags value. For each Model 10N9824 (or
00E0806) adapter, make a note of the Port WWN: value. The Port WWN value will
be required as an argument for commands in next steps.
