Installing HyperFabric Adapters

Chapter 3 45

available on HP 9000 systems that are designed to support OLAR. The

system hardware uses the per-slot power control combined with OS

support to enable this feature.

NOTE OLAR is supported only on TCP/UDP/IP over HF2 adapters.

Not all add-in cards have this capability, but over time many cards will

be gaining this capability.

The HyperFabric Release Notes contains information about which

HP 9000 systems and HyperFabric adapters OLAR is supported for.

IMPORTANT At this time, Superdome systems are not intended for access by users.

HP recommends that these systems only be opened by a qualiﬁed HP

engineer. Failure to observe this requirement can invalidate any support

agreement or warranty to which the owner might otherwise be entitled.

There are two methods to add or replace OLAR-compatible cards:

• Using the SAM utility.

• Issuing command-line commands, through olrad, that refer to the

HyperFabric OLAR script (/usr/sbin/olard.d/clicd).

HP recommends that SAM be used for OLAR procedures, instead of the

rad command. This is primarily because SAM prevents the user from

doing things that might have adverse effects. This is not true when the

rad command is used.

For detailed information about using either of these two procedures, see
