Installing the NetWare Driver
NetWare Driver Files and Parameters
For this adapter to function properly with the Modular Smart Array 1000
(MSA1000), cpqshd.cdm version
When loading the QL2300.HAM driver, the driver switches listed in
required. They are added automatically if you install your driver with the
NWCONFIG utility. Changing or omitting these switches may lead to
unpredictable results or your server not seeing the storage devices on the SAN.
For a complete list of driver switches, please refer to the README.TXT file that
came with the driver.

FCA2214/FCA2214DC PCI-X Host Bus Adapters for Linux, NetWare, and Windows Installation
Specifies to NetWare the PCI slot (slot n) in which the FCA2210 board is
installed. The driver must be loaded once for each FCA2210 board in your
system. For example:
LOAD QL2x00.HAM SLOT=3
Specifies to NetWare to scan for all luns during the load of this driver
instance (otherwise NetWare will only scan for lun zero devices); the
scanned lun number range is 0 to (n - 1) where n is specified by the
/MAXLUNS=n option. This switch is required for multi-LUN storage
subsystems, for example, RAID subsystems. For example:
LOAD QL2x00.HAM SLOT=3 /LUNS
Disables failover and reports to NetWare all devices on all adapter paths;
this allows upper layer modules to do failover across a Netware server's
multiple adapters. For example:
LOAD QL2x00.HAM SLOT=3 /LUNS /ALLPATHS
Internally tracks devices by portname rather than nodename; this is
required when storage luns do not have a 1:1 correspondence across
portnames; this allows upper layer modules to do failover across a storage
subsystem's multiple ports. For example:
LOAD QL2x00.HAM SLOT=3 /LUNS /PORTNAMES
Set the maximum number of luns allowed during the lun scan; default is
n=32. The range of luns searched is 0 to (n-1). For example:
LOAD QL2x00.HAM SLOT=3 /LUNS /MAXLUNS=332
or later has to be loaded on the server.
