DOH! (headslap) Downloading Qlogic's linux offerings now. Thanks --bill (MSN Messenger: billgrava@hotmail.com; AIM: billgrava2003; YAHOO Messenger: billgrava2003; ICQ: 147309038) There are three kinds of people in the world: those who can count, and those who can't. -----Original Message----- From: Kusche, Klaus [mailto:Klaus.Kusche@fabasoft.com] Sent: Wednesday, June 16, 2004 1:36 AM To: Grava Bill; suse-amd64@suse.com Cc: suse-oracle@suse.com Subject: RE: [suse-oracle] has anyone configured a Qlogic QLA2200/66FiberChannel RAID controller in SLES8? What's the problem with them? We've several machines with QLA23xx FC adapters connected to IBM Fastt and ESS via SAN switches, and they work out of the box in SLES 8 SP3 and in RHAS 3 (except that you won't have load balancing and redundant pathes over multiple adapters in the same server). Moreover, I'm not sure about Dell, but both Qlogic and IBM offer linux drivers for download (including a multipath version). DI.

Sorry to double-dip here, but I figure either the amd64 or the oracle bunch would be likely to deal with this. We have two systems using QLogic QLA2200/66 Fiber Channel RAID controllers talking to same on a Dell Powervault RAID array. I'm hoping there's a better way than sticking the controllers into a PC running winblows so we can use the software that came with the controllers...

We'd sure appreciate any pointers -- and thanks in advance for reading

this...
