Checking Devices Status
Using the following command to show driver status:
# cat /proc/scsi/rr2644/x
This command will show the driver version number, physical device list and logical
device list.
5 - Updating the Driver
To update the driver, simply reinstall the driver following the steps in previous
section, “ Install RR2644 Driver on an Existing System “.
Replace the driver module rr2644.ko in the /lib/modules/[kernel-ver]/kernel/drivers/
scsi/. If the driver is loaded in initrd (e.g. when system is installed on the controller),
you need to run mkinitrd to update the initrd file. Also, if you are using lilo boot
loader, you need to run lilo again.

HighPoint RAID Management Software is used to configure and keep track of your
hard disks and RAID arrays attached to RocketRAID controller. Installation of the
management software is optional but recommended.

controller driver, you should setup /etc/hptcfg to be the driver name:
# echo rr2644 > /etc/hptcfg
Please refer to HighPoint RAID Management Software documents for more
information.

attached to RR2644 controller. Just remove the the added before in the file rr2644 from
the file /etc/sysconfig/kerne and /etc/fstab, then, then the new initrd file.
