Driver Installation Under Linux

Determining the Current Version of your 3ware Driver

If you already have a 3ware controller installed, you can check the current

driver version, using either 3DM 2 or the CLI. (For details, see “Viewing

Information About a Controller” on page 80.)

You can also check it using the following method:

If you have a 2.4 kernel or earlier,

type the following command:

cat /proc/scsi/3w-9xxx/*

where the asterisk (*) represents SCSI host ID and 9xxx represents the

family of the controller. For example:

cat /proc/scsi/3w-9xxx/0

If you have a 2.6 kernel with sysfs, type the following command:

cat /sys/class/scsi_host/<hostid>/stats

where <hostid> is usually host0, unless other SCSI devices are available,

in which case it may be host1 or higher.

If you have a 2.6 kernel without sysfs, type the following command:

dmesg | grep 3w

Driver Installation Under Red Hat Linux or

Fedora Core 5

Materials required

• 3ware software CD-ROM

• Floppy diskette, if you need to create a driver install diskette.

• Red Hat Linux installation DVD or CD-ROM. (Not required if Red Hat

Linux is already installed on another drive.)

Creating a Red Hat Linux Driver Diskette

If you are installing Linux on the new drive or unit managed by the 3ware

RAID controller, you must create a 3ware driver install diskette. If Linux is

already installed on another device, you may install the 3ware kernel driver

module from the 3ware software CD-ROM.

To create a Red Hat Linux driver install diskette

1 Insert the 3ware software CD into your system.

2 When the 3ware Escalade Menu appears, click the Driver & Firmware

Disks button.
