StepDescription
1

Make sure that the required building tools and include files are installed. If they are absent install them:

# yum groupinstall "Development Tools"
# yum install kernel kernel-headers kernel-devel


Info

The kernel version must match the version of the installed kernel-headers (i.e. this packages must have same versions. It can be verified via "rpm -q -a | grep kernel-" )

Check that the "kernel", "kernel-devel" and the "kernel-headers" have the same version, and ensure that system is booted from this kernel version (not from some older one and etc) with "uname -a" command.


2

Open xterm and change the default directory to "/opt/charon/drivers/kgpsa":

# cd /opt/charon/drivers/kgpsa


3

Issue "make clean; make" commands to build kernel object:

# make clean; make

(warning) It is prohibited to use a module built on a certain version of kernel on another one.

4Check that there are no compilation errors and the file "ppt_kgpsa.ko" has been built

The CHARON-AXP FC Fabric presentation mode allows to use Linux FC HBA directly. When using this mode, there is no need to load KGPSA adapter(s) as it was described before. The following syntax has to be used instead:

Example:

load kgpsa_generic_storage PGA interface="host3"

...

The list of the LUNs to be excluded. If empty (default), nothing is excluded.
(warning) No multi line is possible for this parameter; the maximum number of symbols inside the double quotes is 255. Use "lun_include" parameter instead if a lot of LUNs must be excluded to specify only the included LUNs.

Example:

load kgpsa_generic_storage PGA lun_exclude="6008-05F3-0005-2950-C758-BCC2-E88B-0007,6008-05F3-0005-2950-8B03-E26B-E231-0005"

...

The list of the LUNs to be included. If empty (default), all LUNs are included.
(warning) No multi line is possible for this parameter; the maximum number of symbols inside the double quotes is 255. Use "lun_exclude" parameter instead if a lot of LUNs must be included to specify only the excluded LUNs.

Example:

load kgpsa_generic_storage PGA lun_include="6008-05F3-0005-2950-C758-BCC2-E88B-0007,6008-05F3-0005-2950-8B03-E26B-E231-0005"
