Driver Command Line Parameters

The following command line options are available:

n Verbose. This option provides detailed debug information. For example:

# insmod qla2300.o options = verbose

n Quiet. This option keeps the driver from displaying. For example:

Waiting for LIP to complete....

scsi%d: Topology - %s, Host Loop address 0x%x

scsi(%d): LIP occurred

Proc Filesystem Support

The /proc filesystem for the QLA2300 driver can be found in the /proc/scsi/qla2300/

directory. This directory contains a file for each QLogic iSCSI HBA in the system.

Each file presents information about the adapter and transfer statistics for each

discovered LUN.
