To install brocade HBA drivers in Linux use:
- Download 'brocade_driver_linux_rhel6_v3-1-0-1.tar' and 'brocade_adapter_software_installer_linux_x64_v3-1-0-1.bin' from brocade website.
- Copy downloaded files to temporary folder for installation
- Extract 'brocade_driver_linux_rhel6_v3-1-0-1.tar'
- Run './brocade_install.sh'
- Run 'brocade_adapter_software_installer_linux_x64_v3-1-0-1.bin'
- Go to '/opt/brocade/adapter/hbaagent/scripts' and run
- './hcmagentservice start'
- './hcmagentservice status'
- Ideally this should also be part of start-up.
- Go to '/opt/brocade/adapter/client'. Run './hcm.sh &'. Login using:
- Username : Administrator
- Password : password
- The agent uses default username 'admin' and probable password 'password'. Editing agent username or password is not required. To configure agent username and password go to '/opt/brocade/adapter/hbaagent/bin' and use './hcmagent -h' for help. Sample usage is './hcmagent -c ../conf/abyss.conf -s saurabh'
- Hard-disk should get detected and shown as LUN0, LUN1 etc. in HCM window
Note that these steps are not required in latest Cent-OS (6.3 at time of writing) as the HBA gets detected and is usable even during installation. Even the exported LUNs are visible as SCSI disks without requiring any configuration change or running any command.
