Problems with 11i on Vclass ?

[Q4you]

While Installing 11i on a V-class system it fails. Is there some problem/dependancy with Fiber channel card (FC-Al) support on Vclass and 11i ?

Any pointers ? Which cards are supproted ?

Thanks !

Is your firmware up to date?

Have you installed the correct drivers and associated patches.

You can get the driver here, if you can't find it on your application CD set.
