#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
3 - Updating the Driver
1.
If the original driver is installed in the system’s initrd (Initial RAM Disk) file
(when using a system installed to the RocketRAID 2210 controller, for example),
the driver module in the initrd file should be updated using the mkinitrd com-
mand (or extract the initrd file and replace the driver module manually).
2.
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 (rr2210.o or rr2210.ko).
4 - Uninstalling the Driver
To uninstall the RocketRAID 2210 driver
Note: The driver cannot be uninstalled while the system is booted from a disk or array
attached to the RocketRAID 2210.
To uninstall the driver, remove the lines added to /etc/fstab, and remove the files
created in the /etc/init.d directory.
