MPIO Windows/Linux 1st time installation

[Davide Depaoli_3]

Hello,
this week I must to install FCA22140 with MPIO on a one linux RH 4.0 and one Win2000 srv.

My questions are:
1) where I can get MPIO software ? Is it embedded with HBA drivers or is dedicated software package ?
2) where I can find the setup instructions for correctly install and setup MPIO ?

The storage is EVA3000

Thanks in advance
kind regards
Davide

I've already gone there, but the links contained in that page redirects to a page without download options (http://snipurl.com/g65h)

The MPIO function for Linux is in the device driver:
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/DriverDownload.jsp?pnameOID=315892&locale=en_US&taskId=135&refresh=true&prodTypeId=12169&prodSeriesId=315890&swEnvOID=2025

For Windows, you need the device driver:
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/DriverDownload.jsp?pnameOID=315892&locale=en_US&taskId=135&refresh=true&prodTypeId=12169&prodSeriesId=315890&swEnvOID=181

and the MPIO DSM:

2)
Documentation for setup on Linux is hidden here:
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/DocumentIndex.jsp?contentType=SupportManual&locale=en_US&docIndexId=179911&taskId=120&prodTypeId=12169&prodSeriesId=421487

Instructions for Windows are in the DSM package.

About the Windows MPIO/EVA3000 that is not available for download I have open a call in HP and received following answer:

The new version of Basic MPIO is supposed to be ready July 15.
Might be better to wait
