Configuring a Boot Device on an EMC Storage Array

Installing onto the boot device with the QLogic HBA v5.x-Series driver

EMC only supports the Linux distributor's in-box driver that arrives with the kernel. This simplifies the process of installing the OS on an EMC storage array device. The Linux distributor's installer will detect the QLogic iSCSI HBA and select the proper driver for the installation.

To simplify the installation EMC recommends only having one LUN presented by the targeted EMC storage array during the installation process. Additional LUNs should be added after the OS is completely installed and has been rebooted to ensure proper operation.
