The host bus adapters (HBAs) for a System z® host must be ordered as features
and they are either factory-installed when you order a new system
or installed into an existing system by an IBM® service
representative.
Perform the following steps to check the installation of
the HBA and to configure the HBA to work with the SAN Volume Controller:
- Ensure that FICON®, FICON Express, FICON Express2, or FICON Express4 features are installed on your System z host.
- Configure the HBA to run in FCP mode.
See the following IBM Web
site for additional information about FCP connectivity:
