DEBIAN + EVA4400

Hi,

It's possible to connect a BL460 with Debian to an EVA??

It's supported? What's the procedure to do this if possible?

Thanks in advance.

Shalom,

You will need to state the version of Debian involved to get an real answer.

Debian is a mainstream distribution and there is support for some versions to work with EVA. Drivers and everything, PSP pack and such.

Hi Carlos,

You can check the Server/OS compatibility with the EVA4400 from the HP StorageWorks SPOCK at the following URL:

Also the latest HP StorageWorks SAN Design Reference Guide would help.

Hi,

I have Debian Release 4.0r1 Codename etch.

This is a IpBrick server, i've asked HP and this is not supported but the people from IpBrick have other servers connected to EVA's.

Debian have Qlogic built in drivers, my question is how can e configure an EVA LUN and do the multipath only with OS tools.

I've connected several Redhat and SuSe servers to EVA's but never worker with Debian !

Any help will be good for me :)

Thanks in advance.
