Hi all, just was wondering if any one knows or can find out who the
Manufacturer is of the following FC HBA:

6239/5716 2 Gigabit Fibre Channel - PCI-X
(IBM Feature Code is FC5716)

I can't seem to find that info in any IBM documentation.

Thanks.

Don't know that one... one way is to look closely at the card to see any
identifying strings on either front or back sides of the card for an
hint.

That's how I eventually identified the FC 6227 card (1 Gb/sec FC) as
being an Emulex LP7000 HBA. Don't know if they used Emulex for the FC
5716 or not.

I'd certainly be interested in hearing about the make and model for the
FC 5716! Someone here probably knows. (We don't have any FC 5716 cards
or I'd look.)

Hello,

Maybe you can find more informations at:

IBM 6239 is Emulex LP9802

Judging from the 6227 and 6228 (Also manufactured by emulex), it probably
with an IBM microcode that changes the PCI ID.

If you're planning on buying the LP9802 instead of the IBM6239, check the
emulex site for device drivers.

Using the command lscfg -vpl fcs0, you can see which EMULEX Adapter is
used. (IBM F/C 6227 = EMULEX LP7000, IBM F/C 6228 = EMULEX LP9002 or
IBM F/C 6239 = EMULEX LP9802)

The PCI ID is set by the jumpers on the board. If the Setting is
incorrect, the cfgmgr will show you, that there is no driver for this
card. If you change the jumper-settings, it should be ok.

!!! You need to install the latest adapter microcode from IBM !!!
