The host bus adapters (HBAs) for a z Systems host must
be ordered as features. These features are either factory-installed
when you order a new system or installed into an existing system by
a service representative.
To check the installation of the HBA and to configure
the HBA to work with the system, complete the following steps:
- Ensure that FICON, FICONExpress, FICON Express2, or FICON
Express4 features are installed on your z Systems host.
- Configure the HBA to run in FCP mode.
See the following website for additional information about
FCP connectivity:
