Greetings,
Have anyone here installed Red Hat 7.2 on an Alpha server? I am planning on installing v7.2 on my ES45 and perhaps using the SANs as well. Any feedback would greatly appreciate it.

It works like a charm, documentation is good (and worthwhile reading). I've never had the opertunity to try it on the ES45 (which I think would make a nice home server *smile*), only ES40.


These are good web-links: (they might wrap)


Though ES45 is tested and certified as "Red Hat Ready" for 7.2, I don't know if this goes for SAN support. The default card for a ES45 would be the KGPSA-DA which is a Emulex LP9002L. I know that Emulex have drivers on their web, but none seems to have been tested with alphalinux.
