4. Automatically load the driver by rebuilding the RAM disk to include the driver
as follows:
a. Edit the
/etc/modprobe.conf
file and add the following entry (if it is
not present):
alias scsi_hostadapterX qla2xxx
where, X is based on the order of the SCSI modules being loaded.
b. Create a backup copy of the RAMDISK image by issuing the following
commands:
# cd /boot
# cp initrd-[kernel version].img initrd-[kernel
version].img.bak
# mkinitrd -f initrd-[kernel version].img `uname -r`
c. To load the driver, reboot the host.
Building the Driver for RHEL 6.0 Linux
1. In the directory that contains the source driver file,
qla2xxx-src-x.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx-k.gz
, issue the following
commands:
# tar -xzvf qla2xxx-src-x.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx-k.tar.gz
# cd qla2xxx-src-x.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx-k
2. Build and install the driver modules from the source code by executing the
build.sh
script as follows:
# ./extras/build.sh install
The
build.sh
script does the following:
 Builds the driver
.ko
files.
 Copies the
.ko
files to the appropriate
/lib/modules/2.6.../extra/qlgc-qla2xxx
directory.
3. Manually load the driver for Linux by issuing the following command:
# modprobe -v qla2xxx
To unload the driver, issue the following command:
# modprobe -r qla2xxx
NOTE:
Depending on the server hardware, the RAMDISK file name may be
different.
