5 Verifying the Installation

To verify that the installation was successful:

1. In the operating system, verify that the drive appears as a recognized device and that the

driver has been loaded. Refer to the sections in“Installing the HP PCIe Workload Accelerator

Software” (page 11) for a description of the specific steps used to verify this.

2. Verify that the drive is online and ready to be used.

a. In Windows:

1) Open the Disk Management tool (refer to the documentation for your specific version

of Windows). The newly installed drive should display.

2) A dialog box may appear that prompts you to initialize the master boot record (MBR)

for the drive. Select OK and continue. The drive should appear as “Online” with

“Basic” as the format status. If the option to initialize the MBR does not appear,

right-click the drive number in the Disk Management tool and select Initialize Drive

from the pop-up menu. Once this operation completes, the drive should appear as

Online with Basic as the format status.

b. In Linux:

1) After the system boots to the desktop, open a terminal window.

2) Run modinfo mtip32xx. The version and module information displays if the driver is

installed. Otherwise, follow the installation steps in “Installing the HP PCIe Workload

Accelerator Support Pack on a Linux System” (page 12).

3) Run fdisk – l | grep rssd*. The HP PCIe Workload Accelerator should appear as

/dev/rssd<x> device. <x> is the drive letter, which is typically “a” for one drive.

The letter increments for each additional drive in the system.

3. Run HPWAM (either the GUI or CLI) and check the status of the drive.

a. If using the GUI, verify that HPWAM loads and that the drive information is shown in the

SSD Info section.

b. If using the CLI, run rssdm –L and rssdm –L –d and verify that the drive information firmware

and status indicate that the drive is present and functional.

4. The drive is installed and is ready for testing.
