2. In the file naming box, ensure that the file name exactly matches the file name as shown in this TechFile

3. Select OK

Before adding any ASL package, ensure Veritas Volume Manager  is installed and enabled:

# vxdctl mode

mode: enabled

Note: If you have installed the previous version of the ASL for the ETERNUS3000 (for example, FJTSYe3k), you should uninstall the package before installing the current version.

To install the package:

# cd /tmp
# zcat VRTSFJTSYe3k4ka_v1.1_aix_4.0mp1_283672.tar.Z | tar xvf -
# installp -acX -d ./VRTSFJTSYe3k4ka.bff VRTSFJTSYe3k4ka

After the package is installed, you must run the vxdctl enable command to claim the disk array as a FUJITSU array:

# vxdctl enable

After running vxdctl enable, you should see libFJTSYe3k4ka.so in the output of the vxddladm listsupport command:

# vxddladm listsupport libname=libFJTSYe3k4ka.so
