Driver for Linux - Installation Section Page 6

Upgrading the Kernel

There are two ways to install the driver into an upgraded kernel. The method you use depends on

whether or not you are upgrading the driver.

• You can upgrade the kernel using the same version of the driver.

• You can upgrade the kernel using a new version of the driver.

To upgrade the kernel with the same version of the lpfc driver kit installed:

1. Copy the /etc/lpfc.conf file to a safe location; for example, to /etc/lpfc.conf.backup. Type:

cp /etc/lpfc.conf /etc/lpfc.conf.backup

2. Uninstall the Emulex driver. Type:

lpfc-install --uninstall

3. Upgrade the kernel and/or distribution.

4. Reboot the system with the new kernel.

5. Re-install the Emulex driver with the lpfc.conf file; to use the previous example, /etc/

lpfc.conf.backup. Type:

lpfc-install -c /etc/lpfc.conf.backup

6. Reboot the system to complete re-installation of the Emulex drivers.

To upgrade the kernel with a new version of the lpfc driver kit installed:

1. Copy the /etc/lpfc.conf file to a safe location; for example, /etc/lpfc.conf.backup. Type:

cp /etc/lpfc.conf /etc/lpfc.conf.backup

2. Uninstall the Emulex driver. Type:

lpfc-install --uninstall

3. Upgrade the kernel and/or distribution.

4. Reboot the system with the new kernel.

5. Install the new Emulex driver. Do NOT use the backup lpfc.conf file. Type:

lpfc-install

6. Add custom configuration lines to the new /etc/lpfc.conf, using the backup lpfc.conf file as a

reference.

7. Rebuild the driver with the new /etc/lpfc.conf changes.

cd /usr/src/lpfcmakemake install

8. Rebuild the ramdisk image with the new lpfc driver. Type:

lpfc-install --createramdisk

9. Reboot the system to complete the re-installation of the Emulex drivers.
