#ln –sf /etc/init.d/hptdriver /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S01hptdriver
#ln –sf /etc/init.d/hptdriver /etc/rc.d/rc4.d/S01hptdriver
#ln –sf /etc/init.d/hptdriver /etc/rc.d/rc5.d/S01hptdriver
Step 4 Configure System to Mount Volumes during Startup
The system can be instructed to automatically mount the array(s) during startup by
modifying the file”/etc/fstab”.
For example, add the following line to tell the system to mount /dev/sda1 to location /
mnt/raid after startup:
/dev/sda1 /mnt/raid ext3 defaults 0 0
4 - Updating the Driver
If the original driver is installed in the system’s initrd (Initial RAM Disk) file (when
using a system installed to RocketRAID 2310 controller, for example), the driver
module in the initrd file should be updated using the mkinitrd command (or extract
the initrd file and replace the driver module manually).
If the original driver is installed in the /lib/modules/‘uname –r‘/kernel/drivers/scsi/
directory, and loaded by the script file (Example /etc/init.d/hptdriver) during the init
process, or the configure file (Example /etc/modules.conf), please replace it with the
new driver (rr2310.o or rr2310.ko).
5 - Uninstalling the Driver
To uninstall the RocketRAID 2310 driver
Note: The driver cannot be uninstalled while the system is booted from a disk or array
attached to the RocketRAID 2310.
To uninstall the driver, remove the lines added to /etc/fstab, and remove the files
created in the /etc/init.d directory.
