Installation Instructions:
1. Create a directory in which the ASL package would be downloaded
# mkdir /tmp/FSC_ASL
# cd /tmp/FSC_ASL

2. At the bottom of this TechFile, click on Download Now to download the package

2. After downloading , verify checksum of the file
# cksum VRTSFSC-FibreCAT_asl-1.0_SunOS_vm5.0.tar_308894.gz
340502336 6520 VRTSFSC-FibreCAT_asl-1.0_SunOS_vm5.0.tar_308894.gz

3. Uncompress the file
# gunzip VRTSFSC-FibreCAT_asl-1.0_SunOS_vm5.0.tar_308894.gz
# tar xvf VRTSFSC-FibreCAT_asl-1.0_SunOS_vm5.0.tar_308894

4. Before adding any ASL package, ensure Veritas Volume Manager is installed and enabled
# vxdctl mode
mode: enabled

5. Install the ASL
# pkgadd -d . VRTSFSC-FibreCAT-ASL

6. After the package is installed, execute vxdctl enable command to claim the disk array as FSC-FibreCAT
#  vxdctl enable
Note: In some cases, it has been reported that the installation of the ASL and/or APM does not take effect, and vxdctl enable does not claim the enclosure and devices. In such cases, you can execute vxconfigd -k command in addition to vxdctl enable.

7. After executing vxdctl enable, verify output of vxddladm listsupport command
# vxddladm listsupport libname=libvxfsc.so
