Installation instructions for the out of kernel QLogic driver

This section contains the following information for installing the out of kernel QLogic driver:

“Installing the Linux v2.4.x host and the QLogic v3.x-Series iSCSI HBA driver” on page 96

“Installing the Linux v2.6.x host and the QLogic v5.x-Series iSCSI HBA driver” on page 107

Installing the Linux v2.4.x host and the QLogic v3.x-Series iSCSI HBA driver

Using the QLogic iSCSI HBA with the Linux operating system requires EMC-approved HBA driver software and SANsurfer Management software. The driver functions at a layer below the Linux SCSI driver to present iSCSI devices to the operating system as if they were standard SCSI devices.
