Installing Linux Drivers
Before installing the Linux driver, ensure that the host computer has the kernel-
devel RPM installed and GCC installed for the running kernel, which will allow the
driver source to compile. These packages may not be installed by default on the
Linux host.
The information shown in the following examples may vary from your installation
depending on the host computer kernel and distribution.
The Linux driver may be installed on either a Linux kernel that is running or not
running. Both procedures are documented in this section.

To load the Linux driver onto the host computer:
1.
Power up the Memory Array
and verify the PCIe connectivity between the
Memory Arrayand the host computer before you install and load the Linux
driver onto the host.
Because the PCIe Hot Plug is not supported by most current BIOS versions,
you must power up the Memory Array before powering up the host
computer.
2.
Log into the host computer as
root
.
3.
Download the Linux driver install file (
vtms-linux-
driver<release>.run
) from the HP Support page.
Where
<release>
indicates the release number; for example,
D4.5.4.1.
4.
Save the Linux driver install file to a suitable location on the host.
5.
Open a terminal shell window and navigate to the location of the Linux driver
install script.
6.
To run the Linux driver install script, type:
./vtms-linux-driver-<release>.run
