QLogic ISP2532-based 8Gb Fibre Channel


QLogic ISP2532-based 8Gb Fibre Channel


You shouldn't need to do anything as the driver is already available as part of the CentOS supplied kernel and modules. To check this, I looked up ISP2532 in /usr/share/hwdata/pci.ids and found that it has PCI Ventodr:Device ID 1077:2532. Then I ran

CODE: SELECT ALL
$ grep 1077 /lib/modules/2.6.18-348.1.1.el5xen/modules.* | grep 2532
/lib/modules/2.6.18-348.1.1.el5xen/modules.alias:alias pci:v00001077d00002532sv*sd*bc*sc*i* qla2xxx


This shows that the device is supported by the qla2xxx module. If running `lsmod | grep qla2xxx` on the running system returns no output, then try running `modprobe qla2xxx` and then look in /var/log/messages to see what appears at the end of the file. You might want to check the output from `lspci -nn` to make sure that your adapter has the same PCI Vendor:Device ID that I looked for.
