Note:
Do not select the following installation sets unless they are
applicable to your configuration. These functions are not supported
by the DS4000 storage subsystem product support.

4.
QLogic SANsurfer installs in the /opt/QLogic_Corporation/SANsurfer directory.
The launch script is located in the /usr directory. The qlremote is installed in the
/usr/local/bin directory.
5. When you are prompted to enable the QLogic failover configuration, do not
enable it. (IBM recommends the use of the RDAC multipath driver, as the
DS4000 LUN failover/failback driver, in a Linux environment.)
The following are known limitations.
v The DS4000 storage products do not support the use of SANSurfer to
configure failover and failback paths or IO load balancing for the DS4000
storage subsystem logical drives (LUNs) using the QLogic failover version
(QLDirect) of the FC HBA device driver in a Linux environment. IBM only
supports the use of DS4000 RDAC multipath device driver in conjunction with
the non-failover version of the QLogic FC HBA device driver.
v The DS4000 storage products do not support the use of LUN masking or
HBA configuration wizard/functions: neither do the DS4000 storage products
support non-Fibre Channel HBA functions, like QLogic SANSwitch or iSCSI
HBA functions.
Note:
For information about other possible program limitations, please see the
README file.
