Manually Loading the Adapter Driver
1. To load the driver, use one of the following methods:
To load the driver directly from the local build directories, issue the
following commands:
For RHEL 6.5:
# insmod /lib/modules/2.6.../kernel/drivers/scsi/
scsi_transport_iscsi.ko
insmod
/lib/modules/2.6.../extra/qlgc-qla4xxx/qla4xxx.ko
For SLES 12:
# insmod /lib/modules/2.6.../kernel/drivers/scsi/
scsi_transport_iscsi.ko
# insmod /lib/modules/2.6.../updates/qla4xxx.ko
To load the driver using modprobe, issue the following command:
# modprobe -v qla4xxx
2. If the iqlremote agent was previously running, restart the agent by issuing
the following command (to ensure that the QConvergeConsole GUI can
reconnect to this host):
# service iqlremote start
Unloading the Adapter Driver
To replace an existing inbox driver with a new out-of-box iSCSI driver, unload the
existing driver and load the new driver. To unload the driver, stop all applications
using the driver and then unload the driver.
1. If the iqlremote agent is running, stop the agent by issuing the following
command:
# service iqlremote stop
2. To unload the driver using modprobe, issue the following command:
# modprobe -r qla4xxx
