3 Linux environments

Included:

• Installation Requirements
• Downloading and installing the driver and utilities
• Adding a file system, formatting, and performing multi-disk configuration
• Using the Logical Volume Manager
• Configuring RAID
• Upgrading firmware
• Upgrading the driver
• Unmanaged Shutdown Issues
• Exploring IO Accelerator Linux Driver Loading
• Linux installation of Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)

Installation Requirements

The HP-provided Linux installers for the IO Accelerator do not contain binary driver modules. Instead,
they build the binary driver RPMs specific to the active Linux kernel by using a source RPM for the
driver and compiler/build tools. This allows for the use of customized kernels, but does place additional
requirements on the system used for initial installation (e.g. the 'build' system). After performing an
installation on the 'build' system, the binary driver RPM can then be deployed to other systems without
having to rebuild it.

The base modules required for the build system are summarized in the following table:

Requirements

Distro

kernel (x86-64), kernel-devel (x86-64), rpm-build, rsync, redhat-lsb, gcc,
dialog

RHEL4

kernel (x86-64), kernel-devel (x86-64), rpm-build, rsync, redhat-lsb, gcc,
dialog

RHEL5

kernel-smp, kernel-source, rsync, lsb, gcc, dialog

SLES10

kernel-smp, kernel-source, rsync, lsb, gcc, dialog

SLES11

These modules may have other dependencies that will be installed automatically assuming you are
using some type of package manager/installer. The kernel-level (for RHEL4 and RHEL5) and
kernel-source (for SLES10 & SLES11) modules must match the kernel version in use.

Downloading and installing the driver and utilities

Two methods are available for installing the driver and utilities.
