SOFTPAQ NUMBER: N/A PART NUMBER: N/A FILE NAME: cpq_cciss-2.4.48-12.ul10.i386.dd.gz TITLE: Driver diskette image for ProLiant Linux driver for Smart Array 6i, 640x, 64x, 5i, 53xx Series controllers for United Linux 1.0 VERSION: cpq_cciss-2.4.48-12 LANGUAGE: English CATEGORY: Driver Diskettes DIVISION: N/A OPERATING SYSTEM: United Linux 1.0 SYSTEM CONFIGURATION: All shipping configurations PREREQUISITES: N/A EFFECTIVE DATE: Jan 30,2004 ELECTRONIC DISTRIBUTION ALLOWED: Yes SOFTPAQ UTILITY VERSION: N/A SUPERSEDES: N/A DESCRIPTION: This driver diskette image provides the binary driver module pre-built for Linux United Linux 1.0 to enable ProLiant Smart Array 6i, 640x, 64x, 5i, 53xx Series controllers. Using this driver diskette at United Linux 1.0 installation time allows the most up-to-date driver version included in the diskette to be used, rather than the default driver version contained in the Linux United Linux 1.0 installation CD. FIXES ~~~~~ 1) Ported web release changes into 2.4.50. * Fixed three issues that were resolved after Smart Start 7.0 High Cutoff * date. * bcm5700 6.2.17a fails to load on base SLES7 kernel * CPQ_CISS v.2.4.48-4 causes Boot menu to default to HP-2.4.7-4GB but * kernel is actually 2.4.64GB-SMP * Default initrd incorrect should be SMP/enterprise but is set to UP 2) Changed variable type to cover cases when the logical volume size is >1TB. 3) Added fix to enable pre-fetch in the SCSI core for Smart Array for x86 architecture only. Required for firmware >= 1.86. 4) Fixed issue in install script that prevented cciss.o driver from being backed-up on SuSE systems. 5) Fixed an issue where drivers where not being installed properly on RHEL3 systems. 6) Fixed uninstall issue with UL and RHEL 2.1 7) Fixed GRUB naming issue with UL 8) Fixed install script to allow rpm to build an initrd for smp or bigmem kernels even if the hardware is not smp or bigmem. KNOWN ISSUES: - Removal of RPM does not restore the old drivers correctly on RHEL3. - Support for RHEL3 U1 Beta1 is not added in RHEL 3 RPM / DD for CCISS driver. ENHANCEMENTS ~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1) Added Smart Array 6i support. 2) Added support for Linux distributions and errata kernels. 3) Added support for Modular Smart Array 500 G2. 4) Added support for Smart Array v100. 5) Added support for Modular Smart Array 20. 6) Added support for One Button Disaster Recovery (OBDR) with Smart Array. 7) Added logic to install scripts to warn user when driver versions are the same and prompt them when the destination driver is newer than the driver to be installed. CREATING A DRIVER DISKETTE There are two methods to create the Installation Diskette: MAKING A DISKETTE UNDER MS-DOS: 1) Save the "cpq_cciss-2.4.48-12.ul10.i386.dd.gz" file into a temporary directory. Use WINZIP to extract "cpq_cciss-2.4.48-12.ul10.i386.dd" from this file into the same directory. Please ensure that "cpq_cciss-2.4.48-12.ul10.i386.dd" is a DOS 8.3 name. 2) Use the "rawrite" utility which is included on the United Linux 1.0 CD in the "dosutil" directory. 3) Label a blank, formatted 3.5-inch diskette as "ProLiant United Linux 1.0 Driver Diskette". Next, insert the diskette in the diskette drive. Then, use the following commands (assuming your ProLiant Disk Image is at the location c: and your CD-ROM is drive d:) C:\> d:\dosutils\rawrite Enter disk image source file name: cpq_cciss-2.4.48-12.ul10.i386.dd Enter target diskette drive: a: Please insert a formatted diskette into drive A: and press --ENTER-- : Enter MAKING A DISKETTE UNDER A LINUX-LIKE OS: 1) Save the "cpq_cciss-2.4.48-12.ul10.i386.dd.gz" file into a temporary directory. Use GUNZIP to extract "cpq_cciss-2.4.48-12.ul10.i386.dd" from this file into the same directory 2) To make a diskette under Linux (or any other Linux-like operating system), you must have permission to write to the device representing a 3.5-inch diskette drive (known as /dev/fd0 under Linux) 3) First, label a blank, formatted diskette appropriately (ProLiant United Linux 1.0 Driver Diskette). Insert the diskette into the floppy drive, but DO NOT issue the mount command: # dd if=cpq_cciss-2.4.48-12.ul10.i386.dd of=/dev/fd0 bs=1440k 4) This command creates a diskette containing the image of the input file (if=cpq_cciss-2.4.48-12.ul10.i386.dd) to an output file (of=/dev/fd0) using the diskette size of 1440k (1.44MB). To make another diskette label that diskette, and run "dd" again, specifying the correct input file.

INSTALLATION To install Linux using this "ProLiant United Linux 1.0" Driver Diskette, boot your Linux machine with your United Linux 1.0 CD1 in your CD-ROM Drive. The installation workflow performs the following steps: o syslinux boots o the user presses "ALT" (optional, if medium change is necessary) o syslinux prompts the user for an "update medium" (e.g. floppy or CD-ROM) o the user inserts the medium and presses "Enter" o syslinux boots into the "update" mode of linuxrc o linuxrc mounts the medium o linuxrc copies all files from /linux/suse/-/install into a directory "install" in a RAM disk mounted below /update (max. 8MB), all files will be flagged as "executable" o linuxrc loads all driver modules below /linux/suse/-/modules by first unloading all modules with the same name and loading the new modules from this directory (in the order the modules have been installed on the medium! Take care of this if your driver modules depend on other modules being loaded first) o linuxrc unmounts the update medium o now linuxrc kicks back and starts YaST1 or YaST2 to do the installation o before starting the installation of packages, YaST1/YaST2 first execute /update/install/update.pre o after the initial installation, YaST1 / YaST2 extract /update/install/update.tar.gz in the root directory of the installed system and run /update/install/update.post afterwards.
