qlogic driver for es4 update 1

Maxim Rozin — Mon, 12 Sep 2005 03:02:30 GMT

Hey,

I have installed rh es4 u1.
I have qla2312 fibre channel adapter, and the OS recognized the card, and installed qla2300 driver for it.

I have a problem that when configuring luns to the system they appear only after reboot, and I have no device file that I can use, because it appears as /dev/cdrom....

does anyone know about how to use this card ?
how to see the luns online ?
how to use the luns ?

Thank you,
Oved

[I have some experience with RHEL3 with qla2300 against MSA1000, not with your configuration, but] read this:

Oved,

Get the fibreutils rpm that is available from the HP drivers download page. One of the utilities available in that package is hp_rescan. This tool will let you see the luns after they are created.

Here is the starting link:

And here is the exact link for an i386 version for RedHat:
