Depending on communications controller model, install microcode as follows: • For servers with a Host LAN Controller-2 (HLC-2), install microcode as described in 14.2.1. • For servers with a channel service I/O processor (CSIOP), install channel adapter microcode as described in 14.2.2. 2. Install the CC or CEC tape for verifying communications (14.3). 3. Install DSPER (14.4). 4. Bring up a version of CMS 1100 that is adequate for at least the communications test (14.5). 5. Test interconnect communications to determine whether the hardware is ready for use (14.6). 14.2.
