In all honesty you shouldn't need snapdrive unless you are trying to
use the server to try and present additional storage directly via
CLI on the server or trying to script and initiate snapshots via
snapdrive.<br>
<br>
If all you're looking to do is simply present a LUN to the server
have the team that manages the fiber switches zone up the server to
the netapp. Have the SAN group create a lun on the netapp and then
create an igroup with the WWN of your server and have them present
the lun to that igroup.<br>

<div>I am looking for a definitive howto on getting anEmulex LPE
11002-e fibre card to work with NetApp's Snapdrive. Trying to
follow directions from the two companies support site is like
trying to dig a tunnel starting at both ends and meeting in the
middle. But the middle isn't defined.</div>

<div>If anyone has knowledge on getting these two to work together

<div>I'm using CentOS 6.2 and the drivers appear to be present. I
can get the WWN numbers which I've supplied to my network group.</div>

<div>Any help is appreciated. I hate to be stumbling around trying
to get this to work. You would think this would be old hat at
this point.</div>

<div>I know when I did this for EMC and Oracle RAC there was a
step by step provided by Oracle. In this case we will be using
MySQL and I can't find anything straight forward.</div>
