Qlogic HBA's - lputil / lpfc.conf

Hi all

Hope your all well and happy in solaris land :-)

Recently purchased some Qlogic HBA's for a few solaris servers. Was told that you cant have mixed chipsets and as this client is all qlogic, have to have hba's using qlogic.

1) Is that correct ? Cant mix different chipsets of HBA's connect to San ?

Im more used to emulex cards and to manage them I used lputil and the lpfc.conf files.

2) If I have Qlogic cards, do I use different files / tools to manage them ??

The SAN guy also mentioned something about whether these cards use RDAC drivers ?

3) What are RDAC / drivers ?

Been sniffing around the net, searching, but thought I would get your opinions .

Once again, many thanks.
