4–Installation in a Linux Environment Verifying the Driver Installation

Verifying the Driver Installation

Verify every adapter to guarantee that the FCoE and networking adapter drivers have been installed successfully and operational. To verify the driver installation:

1.Use the lsmod command to list the loaded kernel modules, and then locate the QLogic FcoE (qla2xxx) and networking (qlgc) driver entries.

The following example lists kernel modules for the QLogic FCoE driver.

# lsmod grep qla2xxx

 

 

qla2xxx

1133797

3

 

scsi_transport_fc

73800

1

qla2xxx

scsi_mod

196697

8

scsi_dh,sr_mod,sg,lbata,

qla2xxx, scsi_transport_fc,sd_mod

The following example lists the kernel modules for the QLogic networking driver.

#lsmod grep qlgc

#

qlge

129881 0

#

 

 

2.Verify the QLogic adapter driver versions. You can use sysfs (FCoE) and ethtool (networking), which is usually the most accurate. You can also use the modinfo command.

The following example displays the FCoE driver version, where X is the sysfs host number for the FCoE driver.

#cat /sys/class/scsi_host/hostX/driver_version 8.03.01.06.05.06-k

#

The following example displays the networking driver version, where eth0 specifies the network interface associated with the adapter networking function.

#ethtool –i eth0 driver: qlge version: 1.00.00.23 firmware-version: v1.35.11 bus-info: 0000:85:00.0

The modinfo command displays vendor and version information the about Linux kernel modules.
