Installing and Configuring the HBA and Driver
8. Reboot the host with the reconfigure option:
reboot -- -r
Driver-related issues
Note these issues (and resolutions) related to installing a QLogic
adapter:
Scenario 1 — The Sun qlc driver is present in the host system
To add the QLogic adapter(s) into a host system that has the Sun qlc
driver:
1. Install the EMC-qualified QLogic driver into the host system.
2. Halt the host system and power it off.
3. Install the QLogic adapter(s).
4. Boot the system with the reconfigure option (
boot -r).
Scenario 2 — The server already contains a QLogic HBA that is controlled by the Sun qlc
driver
If the additional adapter is installed before installing the QLogic
driver, both adapters will be initially controlled by the Sun qlc driver.
When the QLogic driver is installed it will indicate that it is installed
but has failed to attach. This is okay, since the driver will attach itself
to the second adapter after a reboot with the reconfigure option
(
reboot -- -r) .
