Red Hat AS 4 with EVA

I have Itanium rx2620 with A6826A (qlogic) HBA. I install RH AS 4 on it.
Then I install driver kit from HP site.
After that I connect my server to EVA storage.
I see 8 connections (dual channel card + 2 controllers). I think that my linux still use native qlogic driver.
I try too use HP installation guide for driver kit (Notes on Upgrading Kernels and Changing Driver Parameters), but I think that is for older version of Red Hat Linux, becuse I don't have some files they mentioned in guide.
I wan't to see only one connection.
Mybe someone have some new driver kit installation guide ?
I have one question more. What is goal of SANsurfer program.

Hi

Do you have the following versions?

Driver 8.00.02; BIOS: 1.45 or better
Driver 8.00.02p11; BIOS: 1.45

You will find an installation guide here

Qlogic SANsurfer is the FC HBA Manager for centralized management and remote control of distributed HBAs

Cheers

Dusan,

You need to run the HP driver's "set_parm" script to configure the multipath driver. See this prior thread for more info.
