Package Name: Array Support Library for FUJITSU ETERNUS6000
Package Version: 5.0, REV=1.0_2007.03.13.21.11
Supported versions of Veritas Volume Manager (tm): 5.0 and later
Supported arrays: Fujitsu ETERNUS6000 (Active/Active)

At the bottom of this Solution, click Download Now to download the ASL package VRTSFJTSYe6k_v1_SunOS_50_287699.tar.Z

Before adding any ASL package, make sure Veritas Volume Manager (tm) is installed and enabled (vxdctl mode command should return "enabled"):

# vxdctl enable
mode: enabled

WARNING: If installing on Solaris 9, then set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to /usr/lib. Refer to Solution a251706 for complete information (See the Related Kb section below).

After downloading VRTSFJTSYe6k_v1_SunOS_50_287699.tar.Z, uncompress and extract the package:
# cd /tmp
# zcat VRTSFJTSYe6k_v1_SunOS_50_287699.tar.Z | tar xvf -

Note: If you have installed the previous version of the ASL for the ETERNUS6000 (for example, FJSVasle6), you must stop all I/O to volumes or file systems and uninstall the package before installing the current version ASL.

To install the package, type:

# pkgadd -d ./

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 libvxFJTSYe6k.so in the output of vxddladm listsupport:

# vxddladm listsupport libname=libvxFJTSYe6k.so
