1. System Requirements
The following distributions of Linux are supported by the Emulex
LPFC driver:
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 (Update 3 or higher)
SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 (SP2 or higher)
1.1 Red Hat Enterprise Linux 'kernel-devel' Package Requirement
For Red Hat Enterprise Linux installations, the kernel development
package with the same version as the currently running kernel must
be installed for the LPFC 8.0 driver build to succeed. For
example, a system with the 2.6.9-22.EL kernel would need the
kernel-devel-2.6.9-22.EL package, and a system with the
2.6.9-22.ELsmp kernel would need the kernel-smp-devel-2.6.9-22.EL
package.
1.2 SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 'kernel-source' Package Requirement
For SuSE Linux Enterprise Server installations, the kernel-source
package with the same version as the currently running kernel must
be installed for the LPFC 8.0 driver build to succeed. For
example, a system with the 2.6.5-7.139-bigsmp kernel would need the
kernel-source-2.6.5-7.139 package.

Observations
Qualification: Microsoft currently does not offer an FCoE WHQL "Certified for Windows" logo program. When the Storport Miniport driver is used with a standard Fibre Channel HBA, the driver is qualified for the "Certified for Windows" logo program. When the Storport MiniPort driver is used with an FCoE CNA, the driver is considered "unclassified" by Microsoft. In both cases, the Storport Miniport drivers are digitally signed by Microsoft and will be recognized by Windows Sever 2003, Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2.
Note For Windows Server 2003, SP2 and the KB932755 update to the Microsoft Storport driver are required. KB945119 is recommended. The Storport KB update must be applied before the Emulex Storport Miniport driver can be installed.

Observations
Support Resources for PRIMERGY Servers Emulex Product Installation, Upgrades, and Configuration
Installing, upgrading and configuring Emulex products can be easily accomplished by following the checklists provided at the end of this document.
A word about Emulex configuration parameters:
Emulex drivers and software provide a great degree of configurability. In particular, each driver has a number of configuration parameters that allow the customization of the behavior of the driver. Because these parameters can significantly change the behavior of the Emulex product, great care must be taken in the setting of the parameters. Storage and system providers put forth great effort in determining what particular configuration parameters must be set to in order to provide optimal SAN performance.
For best results, never change the driver configuration parameters from their default values or the values that are specified by the storage and systems providers. Doing so can alter to performance of the SAN and possibly place the SAN in a configuration that is not supported or cause it not to operate properly.
How Emulex device driver configuration parameters work
It is very important to understand that Emulex configuration parameters are stored in the server in which the HBA is installed into. The parameters are acted upon by the device driver. Emulex configuration parameters are NOT stored in the HBA flash memory. Unlike some other SCSI and Fibre Channel HBAs, Emulex does not store any configuration information such as timers, Fibre Channel topology or link speed in the HBA flash. When an Emulex HBA is installed into a server, there is no separate configuration step required for the HBA. Proper driver configuration is all that is required. The exception is booting from SAN. In this case, the HBA BIOS utility must be used to configure the boot device. Said differently, the HBA must be told which Fibre Channel device contains the boot volume, and that information is stored in the flash. These settings are only in effect at boot time. Once the operating system loads the device driver, most settings of the driver are used and the HBA BIOS no longer functions.

Qualification: Microsoft currently does not offer an FCoE WHQL "Certified for Windows" logo program. When the Storport Miniport driver is used with a standard Fibre Channel HBA, the driver is qualified for the "Certified for Windows" logo program. When the Storport MiniPort driver is used with an FCoE CNA, the driver is considered "unclassified" by Microsoft. In both cases, the Storport Miniport drivers are digitally signed by Microsoft and will be recognized by Windows Sever 2003, Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2.
Note For Windows Server 2003, SP2 and the KB932755 update to the Microsoft Storport driver are required. KB945119 is recommended. The Storport KB update must be applied before the Emulex Storport Miniport driver can be installed.

When the Storport MiniPort driver is used with an FCoE CNA, the driver is considered "unclassified" by Microsoft. In both cases, the Storport Miniport drivers are digitally signed by Microsoft and will be recognized by both Windows Sever 2003 and Windows Server 2008.
Note For Windows Server 2003, SP2 and Hotfix Q957910 update to the Microsoft STORPort driver are required. The STORPort KB update must be applied before the Emulex STORPort Miniport driver can be installed.
For Windows Server 2008, SP2 and Hotfix Q968675 update to the Microsoft STORPort driver are required. The STORPort KB update must be applied before the Emulex STORPort Miniport driver can be installed.
For Windows Server 2008 R2, no Hotfix is required
New features, fixed issues and known issues in the driver
New Features in Version 2.20.006
1. Added ExtTransferSize parameter. This parameter improves performance on tape devices supporting a larger block size.
2. Added support for Windows Server 2008 R2. This version of the driver kit adds support for Windows Server 2008 R2.
Resolved Issues in Version 2.20.006
1. There was the potential for the driver and the HBA to not synchronize properly, after the HBA was in warm start mode. Polling was modified in the HBAnyware utility.
2. The internal and external loopback diagnostic tests were not available for LP21000 and LP21002 adapters.
Known Issues in Version 2.20.006
1. The HBAnyware GUI is not available on the IA64 architecture. If you are installing on an IA64 system use the HBACMD command line utility, which is available in the Storport Miniport driver and core (CLI) application kit, instead of the Storport Miniport driver and HBAnyware kit.
Workaround: There is no workaround at this time.
2. Do not perform software-first installations on Windows Server 2008 or Vista systems. The procedure documented in the driver user manual might not have the expected effect. No error will be reported, but Windows might continue using the version of the driver distributed with the operating system rather than the new driver when an adapter is installed. The problem occurs because Microsoft-distributed drivers are versioned differently than Emulex- distributed drivers.
Workaround: There is no workaround at this time.
3. To revert to an older driver after a newer driver has been installed, you must uninstall all Emulex software and drivers before installing the older driver kit. Failure to do so could leave your system in an unsupported state. See the driver user manual for all the procedures you must follow.
Workaround: There is no workaround at this time.
4. Due to an issue with HBAnyware version 4.1, the default global driver parameters for converged network adapters (CNAs) cannot be changed.
Workaround: There is no workaround at this time.
