6. The installer script will install both the lpfc and the lpfcdfc
drivers. No options are needed when executing this script. The
installer script unpacks the source RPMs included in the package
in the
/usr/src/lpfc directory and builds the driver using the
sources for the currently running kernel. The script then modifies
/etc/modprobe.conf to include scsi_host_adapter lines. The
elxlpfc is an initialization script for the lpfcdfc driver. The
elxlpfc script is also installed so that the lpfcdfc driver is
configured to start and stop during system boot up and
shutdown. Finally, the installer script creates a backup of the
existing RAM disk and creates a new RAM disk.
The output from running the installer script is as follows:
./lpfc-install
