Using The Source Rpm - HP StorageWorks 4400 Installation Manual

To manually uninstall all components, or to uninstall just one of the components, use one or all of the
following commands:
# rpm -e fibreutils
# rpm -e hp_qla2x00
# rpm -e hp_qla2x00src

Using the source RPM

In some cases, you may have to build a binary hp_qla2x00 RPM from the source RPM and use that
manual binary build in place of the scripted hp_qla2x00src RPM. You need to do this if your
production servers do not have the kernel sources and gcc installed.
If you need to build a binary RPM to install, you will need a development machine with the same
kernel as your targeted production servers. You can install the binary RPM-produced RPM methods
on your production servers.
NOTE:
The binary RPM that you build works only for the kernel and configuration that you build on (and
possibly some errata kernels). Ensure that you use the 7.xx version of the hp_qla2x00 source RPM
for 2.4 kernel-based distributions and the 8.xx version of the hp_qla2x00 source RPM for 2.6
kernel-based distributions.
Use the following procedure to create the binary RPM from the source RPM:
1.
Select one of the following options:
• Enter the #./INSTALL -S command.
NOTE:
If you execute the #./INSTALL -S command, you do not have to complete step
step 4.
• Install the source RPM by issuing the # rpm -ivh hp_qla2x00-version-revi-
sion.src.rpm command
2.
Select one of the following directories:
• For Red Hat distributions, use the /usr/src/redhat/SPECS directory.
• For SUSE distributions, use the /usr/src/packages/SPECS directory.
3. Build the RPM by using the # rpmbuild -bb hp_qla2x00.spec command.
NOTE:
In some of the older Linux distributions, the RPM command contains the RPM build functionality.
At the end of the command output, the following message appears:
"Wrote: ...rpm".
This line identifies the location of the binary RPM.
4. Copy the binary RPM to the production servers and install it using the following command:
