Saving old initrd
DKMS: install Completed.
An example of the modified /etc/modules.conf file is as follows:
[root@l82bi114
alias eth1 e100
alias scsi_hostadapter mptbase alias scsi_hostadapter1 mptscsih alias scsi_hostadapter2 qla4010 alias
options scsi_mod max_scsi_luns=255 scsi_allow_ghost_devices=1
As specified in the driver installation output, a new ramdisk is created automatically by the DKMS RPM installation.
If additional changes to the /etc/modules.conf file are required, create a new ramdisk manually:
cd /boot
mkinitrd initrd-$1.img $1
where $1 is the currently running v2.4.x kernel version.
Example:
cd /boot
mkinitrd
6. Reboot the host.
Installing QLogic
This section guides you through the process of installing and utilizing the QLogic iSCSI driver installation script for RHEL 3.0 and SLES 8 hosts. The installation script will build and install the QLogic iSCSI driver and will modify the /etc/modules.conf file.
By default, the installation script will install the QLogic HBA SNIA
API libraries, the SANsurferCLI, and iqlremote service.
