Configuring the Driver Parameters

Use the esxcfg-modulecommand to configure the QLogic Fibre Channel and Converged Network Adapter driver parameters. Configuration changes made using the esxcfg-module-scommand are preserved across system reboots.

To configure driver parameters:

1.To list the driver parameters, issue the following command:

#esxcfg-module -g qla2xxx

2.To set the driver parameters, issue the following command:

#esxcfg-module -s <options> qla2xxx

In this command, <options> is one of the configurable parameters listed in Table 5-1.

For example, the following command sets the maximum device queue depth, reported by the QLogic, to a value of 32:

#esxcfg-module -s ql2xmaxqdepth=32 qla2xxx

3.To update the ESX RAMdisk image, issue the following command:

#esxcfg-boot –b
