EMC Host Connectivity with Emulex FC HBAs and FCoE CNAs for the Linux Environment

Installing and Configuring the Linux Host with the Emulex Driver

Installing the Emulex CNA v8.x-series driver on RHEL 5.2 and SLES 10 SP2 hosts

To install the Emulex FCoE v8.x-series driver on RHEL 5.2 and SLES

10 SP2 hosts using the installer script included in the package.

1. Boot into the qualified and supported kernel onto which the

driver will be installed.

2. Obtain the

lpfc_2.6_driver_kit-8.2.0.29-1.tar.gz from

the Emulex website as instructed in “Downloading the Emulex

v8.x-series adapter driver for the v2.6.x kernel” on page 45.

3. Uncompress and extract the source files from the tar archive:

cd /home/emulex

tar xzvf lpfc_2.6_driver_kit-8.2.0.29-1.tar.gz

The initial uncompression will create a new directory and will

provide you with the following files within the new directory:

lpfc_2.6_driver_kit-8.2.0.29-1/

lpfc_2.6_driver_kit-8.2.0.29-1/lpfcdriver_2.6-8.2.0.29-1.noarch.rpm

lpfc_2.6_driver_kit-8.2.0.29-1/lpfc-install

lpfc_2.6_driver_kit-8.2.0.29-1/README

Contained within the newly created directory is the

lpfc-install script.

4. Change to the directory that is extracted:

cd lpfc_2.6_driver_kit-8.2.0.29-1

5. Uninstall the original driver before executing Step 6.

a. Stop all applications using the Emulex 8.x-series driver and

unload the lpfcdfc and the lpfc driver modules from the

kernel.

modprobe -r lpfcdfc

modprobe -r lpfc

b. The uninstallation of the driver may be performed using the

lpfc-install script with the -u switch:

./lpfc-install -u
