This web page is a quick guide on what to install and how to check that EMC SAN is attached and working
Solaris
Installing
==========================================================
Install Emulex driver/firmware, san packages (SANinfo, HBAinfo, lputil), EMC powerpath
Use lputil to update firmware
Use lputil to disable boot bios
Update /kernel/drv/lpfc.conf
Update /kernel/drv/sd.conf
Reboot
Install ECC agent
Note: when adding disks on different FA had to reboot server?

Linux
Installing
==========================================================
Install Emulex driver, san packages (saninfo, hbanyware), firmware (lputil)
Configure /etc/modprobe.conf
Use lputil to update firmware
Use lputil to disable boot bios
Create new ram disk so changes to modprobe.conf can take affect.
Reboot
Install ECC agent
