Installing and Configuring the Linux Host with the QLogic Driver

-No original module exists within this kernel

-Installation

-Installing to /lib/modules/2.4.21-32.0.1.ELsmp/kernel/drivers/scsi/qla4xxx/ depmod....

Saving old initrd as /boot/initrd-2.4.21-32.0.1.ELsmp_old.img Making new initrd as /boot/initrd-2.4.21-32.0.1.ELsmp.img (If next boot fails, revert to the _old initrd image) mkinitrd....

DKMS: install Completed.

An example of the modified /etc/modules.conf file is as follows:

[root@l82bi114 qla2x00-v7.07.00]# more /etc/modules.conf alias eth0 e1000

alias eth1 e100

alias scsi_hostadapter mptbase alias scsi_hostadapter1 mptscsih alias scsi_hostadapter2 qla4010 alias usb-controller usb-uhci

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 initrd-2.4.21-27.0.4.ELsmp.img 2.4.21-27.0.4.ELsmp

6. Reboot the host.

Installing QLogic v3.x-Series iSCSI driver via the QLogic installation script, Method two

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.
