Config Notes

Install: The SLES install was performed using a virtual DVD device.
This is SAN Boot only system.
The driver "htc-hfcldd" that was used during testing is SUSE SolidDriver Program compliant. The driver was installed from the driver update disk(DUD) "dud-htc-hfcldd-4.12.20.4110.iso" and the driver package "htc-hfcldd-kmp-default-4.12.20.4110_3.12.49_11-1.sles12sp1.x86_64.rpm". To obtain the DUD and the driver package, go to https://sso.hds.com and click on "Support Connect", then select "Product Downloads". The DUD can be used to install SUSE Linux Enterprise Server(SLES) to the SAN storage, and driver package can be installed after the SLES installation.
