# # FC4 device configuration # menu "Fibre Channel support" config FC4 tristate "Fibre Channel and FC4 SCSI support" ---help--- Fibre Channel is a high speed serial protocol mainly used to connect large storage devices to the computer; it is compatible with and intended to replace SCSI. This is an experimental support for storage arrays connected to your computer using optical fibre cables and the "X3.269-199X Fibre Channel Protocol for SCSI" specification. If you want to use this, you need to say Y here and to "SCSI support" as well as to the drivers for the storage array itself and for the interface adapter such as SOC or SOC+. This subsystem could even serve for IP networking, with some code extensions. If unsure, say N. comment "FC4 drivers" depends on FC4 config FC4_SOC tristate "Sun SOC/Sbus" depends on FC4!=n && (SPARC32 || SPARC64) help Serial Optical Channel is an interface card with one or two Fibre Optic ports, each of which can be connected to a disk array. Note that if you have older firmware in the card, you'll need the microcode from the Solaris driver to make it work. To compile this support as a module, choose M here: the module will be called soc. config FC4_SOCAL tristate "Sun SOC+ (aka SOCAL)" depends on FC4!=n && (SPARC32 || SPARC64) ---help--- Serial Optical Channel Plus is an interface card with up to two Fibre Optic ports. This card supports FC Arbitrated Loop (usually A5000 or internal FC disks in E[3-6]000 machines through the Interface Board). You'll probably need the microcode from the Solaris driver to make it work. To compile this support as a module, choose M here: the module will be called socal. comment "FC4 targets" depends on FC4 config SCSI_PLUTO tristate "SparcSTORAGE Array 100 and 200 series" depends on FC4!=n && SCSI help If you never bought a disk array made by Sun, go with N. To compile this support as a module, choose M here: the module will be called pluto. config SCSI_FCAL tristate "Sun Enterprise Network Array (A5000 and EX500)" if SPARC32 || SPARC64 depends on FC4!=n && SCSI help This driver drives FC-AL disks connected through a Fibre Channel card using the drivers/fc4 layer (currently only SOCAL). The most common is either A5000 array or internal disks in E[3-6]000 machines. To compile this support as a module, choose M here: the module will be called fcal. config SCSI_FCAL prompt "Generic FC-AL disk driver" depends on FC4!=n && SCSI && !SPARC32 && !SPARC64 endmenu |
