I am debating installing CentOS on a new HP DL580 with an MSA1000 SAN. HP offers drivers that are specific to RHEL and will not install on other RH distros i.e. RH 9.
Has anyone gotten the HP SupportPack to install under CentOS?
Thanks!
Actually, yes. I've got a pair of Proliant DL-140s running CentOS 3.4 that are running the Proliant Support Pack. I had to hack the contents of the /etc/redhat-release file to get it installed, but once done it works just great. Each of the two boxes has an FC controller and it is attached to our SAN, we're running Oracle 10g in RAC mode. I've also got some DL-320s running CentOS 3 and the PSP.
Hope that helps! -- Jay Leafey Memphis, TN jay.leafey@mindless.com
