Preparing for the Loopback Test

Perform the following steps before running the loopback test:

1. Modify the HBA port settings Connection Options setting (see

section 10.1.2.1).

2. Attach a loopback connector to the Fibre Channel connector on the HBA port

(see section 10.1.2.2).

Skip this step under the following conditions (an echo test will be run instead):

❑ You have a QLA23xx HBA that is connected to the fabric through a

point-to-point connection (F-port).

❑ The HBA is connected to a switch.

❑ Your operating system has one of the driver versions listed in table 10-1.

3. If the HBA port is connected to the fabric through a point-to-point connection

(F-port) and is connected to a switch, make sure the Connection Options

setting is 1—Point-to-Point Only. See section 11.1.1 for information about

viewing and modifying the setting.
