running kernel if they are not in use and if other modules are not
dependent upon them.
The v8.x series driver consists of multiple modules. For example, if
the command lsmod is invoked on a server with a QLA2340-E-SP
adapters installed, the following three modules will be reported:
◆ qla2xxx_conf - The QLogic Linux driver configuration module
containing information regarding persistent binding.
◆ qla2xxx - The low level QLogic Linux adapter driver module.
◆ qla2300 - The QLogic Linux adapter firmware
loader/personality module for that particular adapter model.
The Linux operating system may panic if any of the following three
commands are invoked prior to performing the procedure in the
“Unloading and reloading the modular QLogic driver” on page 203
to prepare for removing the driver.
◆ modprobe -r qla2300
◆ modprobe -r qla2xxx_conf
◆ rmmod qla2300
