[SunHELP] redhat 5 / emc disk ?

[stephen price]

Thanks for the responses -  the unix team is pushing to use rh5 "out-of-the-box" with minimal adds/changes etc.  So of course they want to use the hba driver already bundled with the distro they have.  Same crowd complained when we (storage) told them they needed to keep the emc drivers updated on sparc boxes in production & development etc years ago. Not so much the worker bees as some management etc.

With the limited window that I'm going to have to work with this test system -  I will be testing the "real" emc driver, additional rpms that benefit storage - fighting the selinux battle with netbackup (selinux not certified with netbackup - unless it is "disabled") etc.

So it appears to me that it will be a re-learning curve with rh5 - which may be more painful than some of our management understands.

Oh - here's the inq and lsscsi output - which is the current issue.

Only a single lun (17) was presented - plus I see I'll have to figure out on rh5 how to hide/blacklist the gatekeeper etc.  More to the to-do list <grin>.
