EMC Host Connectivity with QLogic Fibre Channel and iSCSI (HBAs) and (CNAs) for the Linux Environment

Installing and Configuring the Linux Host with the QLogic Driver

Method 3: Uninstalling the QLogic v7.xx.xx driver via the QLogic RPM

This section provides guidance for uninstalling the QLogic v7.xx.xx

driver RPM. The QLogic RPM may be used to remove the driver with

the e switch for the RPM command.

The following are example steps:

1. Verify the currently loaded QLogic driver RPM:

[root@l82bi235 extra]# rpm -qa | grep qla

qla2x00-v7.03.00-1

2. Remove the driver using the RPM command:

[root@l82bi235 extra]# rpm -ev qla2x00-v7.03.00-1

3. Verify that the /etc/modules.conf file contains the information

necessary for the server to boot and that a new ramdisk has been

created. If the ramdisk has not been created, create one:

cd /boot

mkinitrd -v initrd-$1.img $1

where $1 is the v2.4.x kernel version currently running.

Example:

cd /boot

mkinitrd -v initrd-2.4.21-27.0.4.ELsmp.img 2.4.21-27.0.4.ELsmp

4. Reboot the host.
