2 Driver Installation and
Configuration
This chapter provides the following information about the drivers included with the
adapters:
 “Windows Driver Installation and Configuration” on page 6
 “Linux Driver Installation and Configuration” on page 12
 “VMware Driver Installation and Configuration” on page 15
NOTE
If you need to update the Flash memory of multiple adapters simultaneously:
 For QConvergeConsole GUI, refer to the “Update the Flash Using the
Flash Update Wizard” topic in the QConvergeConsole Help.
 For QConvergeConsole CLI, issue the -flashsupport command to
update the Flash memory for all cards supported by the specified file.
For example:
qaucli -pr nic -flashsupport -i ALL -a p3p11179.bin
NOTE
When you disable the firmware (for example, during a firmware dump or
during a firmware update) in Windows or Linux with a QConvergeConsole
agent, multiple application messages are generated. These messages are
generated because the application cannot communicate with the adapter
while the firmware is disabled. After the firmware is re-enabled, the errors
will go away.
