I'm planning to buy some IBM servers with Qlogic fibre channel adaptors in them, and I have questions: * Does the isp driver support full fabric? There are some notes in the man pages that fabric support "..may be contingent upon the correct firmware being loaded". Would the FreeBSD ispfw firemware be "correct" for a 23xx card? * Would booting from a Qlogic 23xx fibre channel card work fine? I presume they cards come with a standard BIOS, so this just works? * There is a noted bug in the isp manpage that the driver can get stuck upon boot. I presume this bug is specific to loops, not a fabric? Tom Samplonius VP of Technology Uniserve 604-647-0601
