Attaching to IBM System p and BladeCenter JS hosts running the Linux operating system
This information provides an overview for attaching the SAN Volume Controller to
supported POWER® technology-based
hosts running the Linux® operating
system.
The following IBM® Web
site provides current information about supported software levels:
Installing a QLogic HBA driver
If your Linux on System p or BladeCenter JS host contains a QLogic
host bus adapter (HBA), you must download and install the appropriate
QLogic driver for the adapter.
Installing an Emulex HBA driver
If your Linux on System p host contains an Emulex
host bus adapter (HBA), you must download and install the appropriate
Emulex driver for the adapter, unless the Linux distribution already
contains the correct driver at a supported level.
Installing a Brocade HBA driver
If your Linux on
the System x host contains a Brocade host bus adapter (HBA), you must
download and install the appropriate Brocade driver for the adapter.
Configuring the Linux operating system
You must configure the operating system before you can
use hosts running the Linux operating
system with the SAN Volume Controller.
