What you could pursue - is IBM (pre-)sales - as you may or may not have your Linux support via IBM.

Developers are probably not the correct "venue" as, afaik, IBM is not really "developing" on Linux - as IBM. There are IBMers who work on OpenSource projects - but those people are not who I would label "developer" in the same sense I would an AIX developer.

That said - if you found someone who said they are an IBM Linux on Power developer - I'll eat my words.

In short - they key part of your question/comment for me was "does IBM support"? For that question I would be in touch with IBM support, not developers.

Hope this helps!

NAME

       iprinit - IBM Power RAID adapter/device initialization utility

SYNOPSIS

       iprinit

       iprinit --debug --daemon --use-polling --use-uevents

DESCRIPTION

       iprinit	is  used to setup IBM Power RAID adapters and devices for optimal performance. It will enable U320 scsi speeds if it is determined
       the disk enclosure supports it. It will also enable tagged command  queuing.   Any  scsi  bus  attributes,  such  as  bus  width,  or  disk
       attributes,  such  as queue depth, that have been setup by iprconfig will be loaded as well.  It is desired that this be called in the boot
       process, using the init.d script provided.

OPTIONS

       --version
	      Print the version number of iprinit

       --debug
	      Enable additional error logging. Enabling this will result in additional errors logging to /var/log/messages.

       --daemon
	      Run as a daemon to handle adapters and devices being hotplugged.

       --use-polling
	      Do not use netlink/uevent notification, but rather poll for adapter and device configuration changes.

       --use-uevents
	      Use netlink/uevent notification rather than polling for adapter and device configuration changes. If not specified, polling will	be
	      used until the first uevent notification appears, then netlink will be used.
