Updating the HBA Driver
NOTE: The SANsurfer iSCSI HBA Manager HBA driver update feature is
available only on Windows 2000/Windows Server 2003 systems. It is not
available on Red Hat/SuSE Linux nor Solaris SPARC.
To obtain the new driver, follow these steps:
1. Obtain the new driver. Locate the iSCSI driver on the QLogic Web site
(support.qlogic.com
) and click Download.
2. The File Download dialog box displays. Click Save. Specify a temporary
location on the hard disk and download the file.
3. In the temporary directory, locate the driver file. Double-click the file to extract
it to a specified directory.
Perform the following steps to update the HBA driver. Each HBA model shares the
same driver. For example, all QLA4010/4010C HBAs on the host will use the same
driver.
1. In the SANsurfer iSCSI HBA Manager main window HBA tree, select the HBA
port. Click the HBA Options tab; click the Firmware tab. The HBA Options
tabbed page (Firmware tab) displays (see figure 11-12).
