Installing and Configuring the HBA Driver
Introduction
The procedure described here was written specifically for the
QLA22xx and QLA23xx families of Fibre Channel HBAs; however,
the procedures for installing the adapter BIOS and Windows drivers
are identical for QLA21xx, QLA22xx, and QLA23xx.
When installing or upgrading the BIOS and drivers, be sure to use the
latest versions supported by EMC. Review the EMC Support Matrix
for the latest information on approved HBAs and drivers.
Also refer to the EMC Host Connectivity Guide for Windows 2000 and
Windows NT, available on Powerlink, for related information.
