Using the following command to show driver status:
# cat /proc/scsi/rr26xx/x
This command will show the driver version number, physical device list and logical
device list.
5 - Updating the Driver
First obtain the new driver module file rr26xx.ko from the driver image. Refer to the
previous section "Obtain the Driver Module". In the following steps, we assume you
have copied it to /tmp/rr26xx.ko, and your initrd file is /boot/initrd-`uname –r`.img
1. If you are not booting from disks attached to RR26xx controller, you can update
the driver just by reinstalling it following the previous section, "Install RR26xx
driver on an Existing System". Overwrite the driver file in the directory "/lib/
modules/`uname –r`/kernel/drivers/scsi/".
#cp –f /tmp/rr26xx.ko /lib/modules/'uname –r'/kernel/drivers/scsi/
2. If you are using a system installed to RR26xx controller, you can update the driver
file in the directory "/lib/modules/`uname –r`/updates/", then update the initrd
file.
#cp –f /tmp/rr26xx.ko /lib/modules/'uname –r'/updates/
#mkinitrd initrd-'uname –r'.img 'uname –r'
If you are using lilo to boot your system, use "lilo" to reinstall the RAM disk:
#
lilo
6 - Installing RAID Management Software
HighPoint RAID Management Software is used to configure and keep track of your
hard disks and RAID arrays attached to RR26xx controller. Installation of the manage-
ment software is optional but recommended.
