Product Overview: AD221A, AD222A, and AD393A
Product Overview: AD221A, AD222A, and AD393A
Product Overview: AD221A, AD222A, and AD393A
The following cards are described in this overview:
•
AD221A PCIe 1p 4Gbit FC and 1p 1000BT Combo Adapter
•
AD222A PCIe 2p 4Gbit FC and 2p 1000BT Combo Adapter
•
AD393A PCIe 2p 4Gbit FC and 2p 1000Base-SX Combo Adapter
The Fibre Channel portion of these combination cards uses the same protocol and driver as HP’s AD355/AD299A 4 Gbit/s
Fibre Channel cards. The Gigabit Ethernet portion of these combination cards uses the same protocol and driver as HP’s
AD337A/AD338A/AD339A Gigabit Ethernet cards.
HP-UX Specifics
HP-UX card specific features include:
•
The cards run on HP-UX 11i v3 on specified HP Integrity servers. Each card uses two drivers from the March 2008
release. The Fibre Channel bundle FibrChanl-02 contains the fclp driver. The Gigabit Ethernet driver bundle IEther-00
contains the iether driver. The Gigabit Ethernet and Fibre Channel software drivers required for this card will begin
shipping with the HP-UX 11i v3 operating environment (OE) of March 2008.
Once the drivers have been released on the OE, they will also be available on the twice yearly application software media.
For systems that are already running the HP-UX 11i v3 OE, you can either load just the required software driver bundles
(IEther-00 and FibrChanl-02), or you can load the entire OE and you will automatically get the drivers you need for this
card. If the system does not have the full HP-UX 11i v3 March 2008 Operating Environment installed, additional patches
and diagnostics software are required. See the IEther-00 (B.11.31.0803) and FibrChanl-02 (B.11.31.0803) Release Notes
for more information.

Guide. The AD221A, AD222A, and AD393A do not support online addition, replacement, and deletion (OL*) when the
card is in the shared slots (slots 3, 4) of rx3600 and rx6600 servers. The card can still be placed in those shared slots as
long as no OL* is performed. The cards do not support online deletion on first release.
