Chapter 8: Installing the Driver on an Existing Operating System ● 77 2 Using a remote copy utility, copy the driver VIB file for your operating system version from the Linux driver folder on the installation DVD to a local directory on the ESX server. This example uses Linux scp to copy the driver to /tmp/aacraid: VMware ESX 4: scp /mnt/cdrom/linux/driver/vmware-esx-drivers-scsi-aacraid-400.4.1.7.283001.0.4.260247.x86_64.vib root@:/tmp/aacraid VMware ESXi 4: scp /mnt/cdrom/linux/driver/vmware-esxi-drivers-scsi-aacraid-400.4.1.7.283001.0.4.260247.x86_64.vib root@:/tmp/aacraid VMware ESXi 5: scp /mnt/cdrom/linux/driver/vmware-esxi-drivers-scsi-aacraid500.5.1.7.28300.-1.0.5.406165.x86_64.vib root@:/tmp/aacraid Note: Due to file name limits on the installation DVD, the "_64.vib" portion of the file name may be truncated and not visible. Also, the version string may be different from above. 3 Install the VIB module: VMware ESX 4: esxupdate -b /tmp/aacraid/vmware-esx-drivers-scsi-aacraid-400.4.1.7.283001.0.4.260247.x86_64.vib --nodeps --nosigcheck --maintenancemode update VMware ESXi 4: esxupdate -b /tmp/aacraid/vmware-esxi-drivers-scsi-aacraid-400.4.1.7.283001.0.4.260247.x86_64.vib --nodeps --nosigcheck --maintenancemode update VMware ESXi 5: esxcli software vib install -f -v file:/tmp/aacraid/vmware-esxi-drivers-scsiaacraid-500.5.1.7.28300.-1.0.5.406165.x86_64.vib 4 Reboot your computer.

Using a remote copy utility, copy the driver VIB file for your operating system version
from the Linux driver folder on the installation DVD to a local directory on the ESX
server. This example uses Linux scp to copy the driver to /tmp/aacraid:
VMware ESX 4:
scp /mnt/cdrom/linux/driver/vmware-esx-drivers-scsi-aacraid-400.4.1.7.28300-
1.0.4.260247.x86_64.vib root@<esx-server-ip>:/tmp/aacraid
VMware ESXi 4:
scp /mnt/cdrom/linux/driver/vmware-esxi-drivers-scsi-aacraid-400.4.1.7.28300-
1.0.4.260247.x86_64.vib root@<esx-server-ip>:/tmp/aacraid
VMware ESXi 5:
scp /mnt/cdrom/linux/driver/vmware-esxi-drivers-scsi-aacraid-
500.5.1.7.28300.-1.0.5.406165.x86_64.vib root@<esx-server-ip>:/tmp/aacraid
Note:
Due to file name limits on the installation DVD, the “_64.vib” portion of the file
name may be truncated and not visible. Also, the version string may be different from
above.

Install the VIB module:
VMware ESX 4:
esxupdate -b /tmp/aacraid/vmware-esx-drivers-scsi-aacraid-400.4.1.7.28300-
1.0.4.260247.x86_64.vib --nodeps --nosigcheck --maintenancemode update
VMware ESXi 4:
esxupdate -b /tmp/aacraid/vmware-esxi-drivers-scsi-aacraid-400.4.1.7.28300-
1.0.4.260247.x86_64.vib --nodeps --nosigcheck --maintenancemode update
VMware ESXi 5:
esxcli software vib install -f -v file:/tmp/aacraid/vmware-esxi-drivers-scsi-
aacraid-500.5.1.7.28300.-1.0.5.406165.x86_64.vib

Reboot your computer.
