We're getting a load of new equipment here in the next few weeks which
Ido not have any direct experience loading/running with RHEL. I was
hoping that there might be a few kind souls out there who might want to
share their joys/pain on getting RHEL 3/4(beta) onto this server and
setting up the HBA/SAN.

Specifically:
- Useful apps for the HBA/SAN configuration.
- SNMP agents for monitoring the HW
- Gotchas or general experiences. Slam dunk versus hours of driver
hunting? System freezes, known problems, etc..
- Useful mailing lists / resources.

I've been to the IBM/QLogic web site and found the usual suspects
(i.e. source for the drivers, firmware updates, etc) but thought
others might have some experience tips they could share. 

Regards,

Kevin.

eServer326 Dual Opteron
DS400 Storage
IBM Fiber Channel Card (24P0960 - QLogic I believe)
