Removing the QLA200 HBA and the NetWare Driver
If you are removing the QLA200 HBA from the server, perform the following steps:
Step 1.
Remove the QLA200 HBA from the server hardware.
Step 2.
Power on the server. Start the NetWare server if it does not start
automatically.
Step 3.
The HWDETECT program automatically detects that the QLA200 HBA has
been removed, and consequently removes the driver load instance. If
HWDETECT does not remove the driver, perform the steps in
.
5.4.2
Removing the NetWare Driver
If you are not removing the QLA200 HBA from the server, or you removed the
QLA200 HBA and HWDETECT did not remove the driver load instance, perform
the following steps:
Step 1.
Start NWCONFIG. Select
NCF Files Options
. Select
Edit STARTUP.NCF
File
to edit the file STARTUP.NCF.
Step 2.
At the start of each line that loads the QL2300.HAM file (there is one line
for each QLA200 HBA in the server), insert a pound sign (#) to comment
out that line. Spaces are allowed after the pound character; be sure to add
the space on all lines that load the NetWare driver.
The following example lists the load lines for two driver instances
commented out with the pound sign (#):
# LOAD QL2300.HAM SLOT=2 /LUNS
# LOAD QL2300.HAM SLOT=3 /LUNS
Step 3.
Exit the editor (save the changes you made).
Step 4.
Exit NWCONFIG.
Step 5.
Restart the NetWare server.
When you want to reload the QLogic driver, use NWCONFIG
to edit
the STARTUP.NCF file. Remove the pound sign (#) that you inserted in
the editor (save any changes you made), exit NWCONFIG, and restart the server.
