b.SANsurfer FC HBA Manager to install only the SANsurfer FC HBA Manager GUI.

v SANsurfer Switch Manager GUI, to install only the SANsurfer Switch Manager GUI. This option is for managing QLogic switches only.

viSCSI GUI and Agent, to install the SANsurfer iSCSI HBA Manager GUI, including the iSCSI (Windows, Linux, or Solaris) agent.

vSANsurfer iSCSI HBA Manager, to install only the SANsurfer iSCSI HBA Manager (GUI, not the iSCSI (Windows, Linux, or Solaris) agent).

Note: Do not select the following installation sets unless they are applicable to your configuration. These functions are not supported by the DS4000 storage subsystem product support.

4.QLogic SANsurfer installs in the /opt/QLogic_Corporation/SANsurfer directory. The launch script is located in the /usr directory. The qlremote is installed in the /usr/local/bin directory.

5.When you are prompted to enable the QLogic failover configuration, do not enable it. (IBM recommends the use of the RDAC multipath driver, as the DS4000 LUN failover/failback driver, in a Linux environment.)

The following are known limitations.

v The DS4000 storage products do not support the use of SANSurfer to configure failover and failback paths or IO load balancing for the DS4000 storage subsystem logical drives (LUNs) using the QLogic failover version (QLDirect) of the FC HBA device driver in a Linux environment. IBM only supports the use of DS4000 RDAC multipath device driver in conjunction with the non-failover version of the QLogic FC HBA device driver.

vThe DS4000 storage products do not support the use of LUN masking or HBA configuration wizard/functions: neither do the DS4000 storage products support non-Fibre Channel HBA functions, like QLogic SANSwitch or iSCSI HBA functions.

Note: For information about other possible program limitations, please see the README file.
