EMC Host Connectivity with QLogic FC and iSCSI HBAs and FCoE CNAs for the Linux Environment
Installing and Configuring the Linux Host with the QLogic Driver
#*********************************************************#
# INSTALLATION SUCCESSFUL!! #
# QLogic HBA Linux driver installation 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
On SLES 8 hosts, the /etc/sysconfig/kernel file is also
modified.
The following is an example of a modified
/etc/sysconfig/kernel file:
INITRD_MODULES="cdrom scsi_mod ide-cd aic79xx qla4010 reiserfs"
As specified in the driver installation output, a new ramdisk is
created automatically by the QLogic installation script.
If additional changes to the /etc/modules.conf file are
required, create a new ramdisk manually:
• For Red Hat, use:
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
• For SuSE, use:
cd /boot
mkinitrd -i initrd-$1 -k vmlinuz-$1
where $1 is the currently running v2.4.x kernel version.
Example:
cd /boot
