[ovirt-users] FC QLogic question

Hi,

I seem to have run into a problem setting up ovirt with Fibre Channel storage.

I have a 2MBs SAN and qlogic cards in the nodes.  I used this same setup with RHEV about 6 months ago and it just worked, storage was there no problems.  Now booting with ovirtnode distro, I am seeing

Sep  9 08:01:27 localhost kernel: qla2xxx [0000:0c:00.0]-0091:1: Firmware images can be retrieved from: http://ldriver.qlogic.com/firmware/.
Sep  9 08:01:27 localhost kernel: scsi1 : qla2xxx
Sep  9 08:01:27 localhost kernel: qla2xxx [0000:0c:00.0]-00fb:1: QLogic QLE2460 - QLogic 4GB FC Single-Port PCI-E HBA for IBM System x.
Sep  9 08:01:27 localhost kernel: qla2xxx [0000:0c:00.0]-00fc:1: ISP2432: PCIe (2.5GT/s x4) @ 0000:0c:00.0 hdma+ host#=1 fw=4.00.26 (2).
Sep  9 08:01:27 localhost kernel: ata_piix 0000:00:1f.1: PCI INT A -> GSI 16 (level, low) -> IRQ 16

I have googled the firmware error and it says some cards need a firmware flash and some don't.  These are pretty standard HBAs so I would think they would be supported out of the box, but maybe not.  Looking at trying to add the firmware looked kind of complex - if I need to do this, does anyone know of a nice and easy howto guide on this.  I'm just getting started with ovirt and appreciate  any help

Thanks
