Subject: Is there a grand plan for FC failover?
Date: Mon, 26 Jan 2004 14:18:15 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <401521A7.5030808@thekelleys.org.uk> (raw)

I see that 2.6.x kernels now have the qla2xxx driver in the mainline, 
but without the failover code.

What is the reason for that? Is there a plan provide failover facilities 
  at a higher level which will be usable with all suitable low-level 
drivers and hardware?

I'm very much in favour of using drivers which are developed in the 
kernel mainline but I have an application which needs failover so I 
might be forced back to the qlogic-distributed code.

Cheers,

Simon.
