NVRAM Initialization ----- -------------- NOTE - The old NVRAM.EXE program is now obsolete and has been replaced by the NODENAME.EXE program. The file NVRAM.BAT has been provided as a convenience to those familiar with the old NVRAM program's switches. The primary purpose of the NODENAME.EXE program is to allow the user to (re)initialize an NVRAM that has become corrupt. Each successive adapter in the system will have its LEDs flashing, at which time the user will be prompted to scan or enter the Node World Wide Name from the bar code sticker on the card. The user can enter or scan either the full 16-character Node Name or only the last 6 characters. The program can also be used to reset all parameters to their default values, but it would be much easier to just go into the FCCONFIG program (available at the time of system boot by pressing [CTRL] [F]) and choosing the reset options. The program has the following command format: NODENAME [-d|-u|-p|-r|-v|-s|-6|-?] [-c Channel] [Filename] where: -d Selects dump mode, Filename must be specified; -u or -p Selects program/update mode; -r Specifies Raw mode, FIlename and Channel must be specified, no user entry of Node Name; -v Only applies to program/update mode, instructs the program to disregard (override) the PCI Subsystem Vendor ID when finding adapters; -? Displays general NVRAM info; -c Channel Dump/update the specified Channel, default update all channels, dump first channel; and FIlename Pathname of file to save NVRAM to or to read initial NVRAM settings from For example, to initialize/reset all parameters for all boards, use the following command: NODENAME -U NOTE: If the user has purchased the RAID package, the RAIDENB.EXE program must be rerun to enable RAID on the adapters after having run the NVRAM program. See RAIDENB.TXT for details.Download Driver Pack
