Verifying the Driver Installation
Verify every adapter to guarantee that the FCoE and networking adapter drivers
have been installed successfully and operational. To verify the driver installation:
1. Use the lsmod command to list the loaded kernel modules, and then locate
the QLogic FcoE (qla2xxx) and networking (qlgc) driver entries.
The following example lists kernel modules for the QLogic FCoE driver.
# lsmod | grep qla2xxx
qla2xxx 1133797 3
scsi_transport_fc 73800 1 qla2xxx
scsi_mod 196697 8 scsi_dh,sr_mod,sg,lbata,
qla2xxx, scsi_transport_fc,sd_mod
The following example lists the kernel modules for the QLogic
networking driver.
# lsmod | grep qlgc
# qlge 129881 0
#
2. Verify the QLogic adapter driver versions. You can use sysfs (FCoE) and
ethtool (networking), which is usually the most accurate. You can also use
the modinfo command.
The following example displays the FCoE driver version, where X is
the sysfs host number for the FCoE driver.
# cat /sys/class/scsi_host/hostX/driver_version
8.03.01.06.05.06-k
#
The following example displays the networking driver version, where
eth0 specifies the network interface associated with the adapter
networking function.
# ethtool –i eth0
driver: qlge
version: 1.00.00.23
firmware-version: v1.35.11
bus-info: 0000:85:00.0
The modinfo command displays vendor and version information the about
Linux kernel modules.
