EMC Fibre Channel and iSCSI with QLogic HBAs in the Windows Environment
Planning, Miscellaneous Procedures, and Troubleshooting
◆ STORPort 9.1.0.15 and SCSIPort 9.1.0.10 - QLA23XX, QLE 23XX,
QLA24XX, QLE24XX, Windows 2003 (SCSI and STOR) and
Windows 2000 (SCSI only)
Where to Find the
Driver
You can find the Fibre Channel HBA driver:
◆ On the QLogic CD-ROM that accompanied the HBA. Copy the
driver from the OS-specific directory: \Windows2000 or
\Windows2003
◆ On the QLogic website. Refer to Downloading Latest QLogic
Drivers/Firmware/BIOS files on page 1-2
To ease installation of the driver, unzip the driver file onto a blank
diskette.
Windows 2003
STORPort Updates
Currently the shipping version of Windows 2003 requires post-RTM
hotfixes to resolve some known issues. For all Windows 2003
STORPort installations, you should obtain the current Microsoft QFE
hotfix listed in the EMC Support Matrix with the HBA driver
revisions.
Install this patch before installing the HBA driver. Windows 2003
Service Pack 1 (x86 and IA64) and Windows 2003 x64 contain the
latest STORPort hotfix and does not require a post-RTM QFE.
Important
EMC recommends that users planning to upgrade to Service Pack 1 for
Windows 2003 should upgrade their HBA drivers to the latest supported
version prior to installing the service pack.
