Installing the Solaris Driver

This section provides instructions for installing the Solaris driver in an already
installed Solaris operating system.
To install the driver, you must be familiar with the operating system under which the
HBA is to operate, and have access to standard system documentation.
The software kit that is included with the HBA contains the latest version of the HBA
software files at the time of shipment. Software files are updated periodically and can
be obtained from the Compaq website:
http://www.compaq.com/products/storageworks/adapters.html
To install the Solaris driver to your system:
1. Log on to the system as superuser.
2. Create a temporary directory to which you can copy the driver.
3. Change the directory (cd) to the CD-ROM mount point (usually /cdrom, but the
location varies. Ask your system administrator for the specific directory).
4. Change the directory (cd) to the Solaris directory.
5. Copy (cp) the qla2200.Z file from the CD-ROM to the temporary directory
created in step 2.
6. Change the directory (cd) to the temporary directory created in step 2.
7. At the command prompt, enter:
uncompress ./qla2200.Z
This step creates a file in the same directory called qla2200.
8. At the command prompt, enter:
pkgadd -d ./qla2200
