Chapter 3. Installing the Device Driver on an RS/6000 and
pSeries System
This chapter explains how to install device driver software on an RS/6000 and pSeries (not an RS/6000
SP) system unit.
Note:
If the adapter was installed prior to the installation of the AIX operating system, do not continue with
this section. The device driver software was automatically installed with AIX. Proceed to “Verifying
the Installation” on page 15.
Each Fibre Channel adapter requires a different device driver. To determine the correct device driver for
your adapter, see the following table.
